Were I interested in Fedora LTS, I'll start looking for server space and
bandwidth (man-power isn't exactly a technical ressource). And, yes,
I'm certain I could find enough to get started.

Is copying the Fedora infrastructure really the showstopper ?
Last I heard, it was hardware problems and lack of man-power.

Sorry, bad phrasing on my part. What I meant was :

The people asking/demanding that LTS be implemented do not remember Red Hat
or Fedora promising they would address all demands made of Fedora.

Well, I'm still here and Fedora fills my needs better than RHL ever did.
