I think having the RHEL version makes sense; but I'm not sure exactly
what we gain from having a version labelled "fedora".  If someone
wanted the Fedora docker, why wouldn't they just install Fedora?  And
if in this case "Fedora" really just stands for "Recently stable
docker", then we should probably just come up with another name for it
that describes it better (even if in the end it turns out to be a
straight re-building of the Fedora RPM).
