That would be the equivalent of asking Red hat to make Fedora LTS, and
Novell to make opensuse LTS.  They both use members from the community
in addition to employees to develop packages, and they choose which
packages they wish to include in their LTS distros, Red Hat and SLED.

They are not going to support a distro that is not ready for enterprise
use. This is not in their business model.  But, it does open up support
for 3rd parties if they wish to support the community distros in the
enterprise.
