[snip] True, but you may also fail at upgrading (see the users ML) and it means possibly fail every 6 months ;-). You cannot be serious in recommending Fedora for a server in production, just because it has up-to-date software without mentioning that it would bring fresh fixes, yes, but also fresh bugs. And that's not what I'd recommend to handle a server in production, unless you are both the user and the admin and it's your own home/office and your responsibility only involves you and no real cost if something goes wrong. Or, unless your hardware requires kernel (and more) support that is only found in Fedora, which is another important detail (for instance, you might fail w/ CentOS7 or Redhat7 on fresh hardware).
