IIRC, Warren Togami is interested in backporting the LTSP5 packages to
Enterprise Linux v5 once the initial Fedora work is done. Ideally,
someone would maintain this in EPEL [1]. Then a CentOS w/ K12Linux
spin could be made available relatively easily.

But there's still plenty of things to do on the Fedora side:
