Fedora is a community driven project. The community decides the direction it wants the distribution to go. And it is also true that Fedora is upstream to Red Hat Enterprise Linux. However even RHEL is not server-only. RHEL also makes a great desktop client in an environment where long term support is needed. Also: I _want_ to use Fedora as a desktop. And I also _want_ to use it as a server. At the Moment I see no problem in that. Why can't there be both in your opinion? Letting Ubuntu "grind out" the desktop stuff doesn't make sense. Do you want to kick out all the guys doing great work on desktop stuff and send them to Ubuntu? And to answer your last question. Solaris releases their "desktop distro" every six months, just like Fedora. They then call it "OpenSolaris", also a community-driven project.
