you do NOT want a rolling release in production
really

fedora N-1 is fine in production

the one and only weakness of Fedora is carelessly
about upgrades in many cases and NO everytime if
things are not running perfectly switch the distribution
is plain stupid becasue you end in most of your
life swichting your OS

no you are not done with a switch

this maybe OK for the 08/15 user but not for power users
tuning and optimizing their configurations exactly for
their needs and if something happens upstream you do
not like you are ending in permenetly wasting all your
time and expierience by hopping to the next
