Here in Brazil I´ve been working in environments where RH-EL is used for intensive database applications (Oracle suite) mixed with some fedora servers for DNS and things like that. The advantages in the use of Fedora is that we are able to foresee things that will be available in next releases of RH-EL.
I agree with the fact that using Fedora is important to assure that the RH-EL is stable and performatic.
Regarding to the "ext3/jbd bug", I don´t think it is up for all the fuzz we have seen in this list. It is around for sometime and nobody noticed it. The fact that the issue came to discussion before the release of FC-6 simply shows the commitment of Linux community in not hidding dirty issues under the rugs and that this problem won´t be present in the next release of RH-EL.
Best regards,
Casimiro

It is a deadlock way for Fedora.
"Enthusiasts and developers" means that Fedora will be used on their
home computers/laptops etc. only, and *never* used in the production
environment. But a lot of critical bugs can be found only by "production
usage".
If RHEL is based on Fedora, then Fedora must be stable enough for
production systems too. Otherwise RHEL people should spent a lot of
testing/laboratory etc. work itself, but even such a work does not
guarantee that they will catch all the bugs possible...
