The short answer: Because RHEL is based on Fedora development.
This is roughly true, although "downstream" RHEL makes its own decisions about many things. If you (Mark, or anyone else) would like to make this different in the future, getting involved with Fedora Server is a good way to do so.
Oh, one more thing: as I posted (by request) on Bruce Schneir's blog last week, one thing that has *always* really annoyed me is when architects or developers DON'T TALK TO END USERS, but some manager who *knows* what needs to happen designs the whole thing. Too many times I've seen the end result: end users, the mass of folks who have to use it, range from dislike to loathing, and avoid using something that *should* have made their life easier at work, instead making it *much* harder, until they have no choice.
I've been pleased that the folks on this list have been solicited several times in the last six months for our opinions.
