They should use Fedora colors but changing the theme of the web apps 
seems to unnecessary overhead unless you have some very dynamic and 
flexible system where changes can easily made every 6 months.

More importantly, we have atleast two current general releases that we 
maintain at any given point of time and we don't want to alienate either 
set of users not to mention users still using the older versions by 
appearing to only care about the very latest release.

Very few

None. We do have a few OEM folks like Pogo Linux but our trademark 
requirements doesn't leave room for much value add-ons of any kind.

references there.  Mo came up with some banners which haven't been 
actually launched yet
