My suggestion would actually be that Fedora releases should ship ONLY
with the latest supported upstream version and should be allowed to
pick up the next one during its supported lifecycle.

Hmm, looking at larger Django applications included in Fedora.

Askbot: still requires exclusively Django-1.4, does not work with later
versions.

I wouldn't block too hard on askbot in Fedora. We (me, nirik, and some other people I've forgotten) were looking at it recently - in the context of unbundling tinymce, or something - and it's basically DOA so far as Fedora goes. We strongly suspect the package hasn't worked on Fedora for years (or, possibly, ever). The current F20 and Rawhide packages at least certainly can't possibly really work (unless someone's fixed an awful lot of stuff in the last three weeks or so).

The package exists to back ask.fedoraproject.org , basically (that, of course, runs on EL6). I doubt there's any other live askbot deployment using the Fedora/EPEL packages.
