I think most of the problems with Fedora stability are around
bringing up a new Fedora every 6 months or so. They tend to change
sufficiently within that time period to make this a fairly
involved exercise. But once working they work for the ~13 months
of support they offer. I know Paul Belanger would like to iterate
more quickly and just keep the most recent Fedora available
(rather than ~2).

Regardless its instability/churn makes it unsuitable for stable
branch jobs because the support lifetime of the distro release is
shorter than the maintenance lifetime of our stable branches. Would
probably be fine for master branch jobs but not beyond, right?
I'm of the opinion that we should decouple from distro supported python
versions and rely on what versions upstream python supports (longer
lifetimes than our releases iirc).
Yeah. I don't want to boil the ocean too much ... but as I mentioned in
my other reply, I'm very pleased with pyenv. I would not be opposed to
switching to that for all of our python installation needs. OTOH, I'm
not going to push for it, nor do I have time to implement such a switch.
But I'd vote for it and cheer someone on if they did.
