1) RedHat shifting their desktop to Fedora is really only a precursor to their release of a Corporate Desktop Edition of RedHat. They didn't want to compete with themselves.

2) In most cases the SSH or Apache or whatever team fixes the bug and then the vendors roll that patch into their version and re-package it. I really don't see any evidence that RedHat is fixing Apache for instance, and then sending Apache the fix. In my opinion, this is a bunch of malarky.
