Frankly, simply dropping 32-bit support would be one of the more stu--er, ill-considered--moves Redhat could make. Yes, Fedora is the test-bed, as you will, for RHEL. And perhaps it makes sense for RHEL, itself, to move to 64-bit only platforms. (Or not; how many smaller organizations are going to keep existing 32-bit installations running until they *have* to replace their current servers?) But if they expect Fedora to remain viable, pushing it to 64-bit is a more than questionable move. There's an entire ecosystem built around Fedora and spinoffs. It may seriously be time for Redhat to consider splitting Fedora into two distros--one tracking RHEL and continuing the role as testbed for RHEL, and the other taking up the role as an enthusiast's distro, and continuing to support the alternatives such as Pidora.
