Wouldn't it be best if you created a spin of Fedora that best suited the needs
of your environment, possibly even including packages outside the Fedora
world that your coworkers may need? You wouldn't be able to distribute this
outside your workplace, but still...
Probably. It's nice to be able to pull a single image off of a
website anywhere on the net and not have to worry about whether or not
it had everything we needed. FC3, 4, and 5 has everything that we
need that wasn't binary/closed for the majority of our developers. FC
6 breaks this for us. It looks like FC7 could be worse.
Also, it sounds like we'll have to maintain separate environments to
create the spins for the various releases and architectures. x86_64
for hasn't been a big deal yet, but we'll probably start using it
more. Of course the various virtual machines will make that easier,
but it's one more thing to maintain.
