My plan (at this moment anyway) is to use RH Enterprise WS for smallish 
servers and Fedora for workstations.

My biggest dilemma are those systems running 7.3 - 9 that will still 
need security updates for months/years to come. I'm not about to reload 
them anytime soon. Rumor is Fedora will supply security updates to take 
up the slack left by RH, but I haven't seen it confirmed.

I'm still trying to convince myself that this Balkanization of RHL is a 
good thing.
