Fedora offers 9 versions
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/ in addition to the mainline
release, including KDE,
XFCE, and LXDE. That's in addition to the availability of MATE and Cinnamon in the
mainline release.
these are not really 9 versions
a spin more or less a different set of default packages with
a different defaut desktop and contains NOTHING you could
not install with the DVD-ISO
that said: if there is a probelem with a fedora release
because basic components are switched in a to soon level
of development this would affect ANY spin
example: systemd, it was broken in F15 and affected all
spins, broken in the way most services not converted and
supressing most warnings/errors of services to maek it
impossible debug them in a sane way
