I'm afraid I don't completely understand you. About what maintenance
load you are speaking?
Is there any polices or guidelines about it?
Any upstream deviation usually causes a higher maintenance load since
the downstream patch set has to be re-based for every upstream release.
For a active project like Apache, you should focus on getting the
patches integrated upstream and benefiting all downstream distributions
and not just Fedora.
For guidelines and policies refer
