Personally, I could never endorse the use of Fedora as a host platform for IOCs, any EPICS-related development, or operator consoles. I see the lack of long term support for stable versions as a definite deal-breaker.
I avoid the use of the term 'stable' to describe OS's and software,
since as I understand it, the term was coined to mean something that most people do not imply by it's use.
