1. Requirement Analysis
2. Evalution of alternatives
3. Pick the distribution best suited for the task at hand and start planning

So you just figured out fedora doesent meet your or your customers
requirements and you are not a member of the intended audience with
running a production server with fedora then fine... there are enough
alternatives better suited for the task. just proposing that fedora
should be yet another distribution that moves very slowly (there are
enough of those available) isnt very productive.
