Well, in all fairness, Fedora's stated goal is to advance the state of free software. You get that by being bleeding-edge. Unfortunately, being bleeding edge also means not being suitable for production environments - these are two fundamentally incompatible goals. This is why Red Hat Linux split into two - Fedora and RHEL. RHEL is a derivative distribution of Fedora.
All sounds good, by RHEL is not free. So, in this case many people pointed to CentOS, and I agree with it, but it is even not RedHat or Fedora initiative.
