This problem is going to get worse: Red Hat's "thing" these days is to develop software internally, then release it open sourced.
Which is nice: except you skip all of the community testing that gives Red Hat Linux its value.
One good example is sssd, the single authentication provider, which was a buggy mess until recently. Not community tested - and difficult to community test - it's an enterprise component.
Another example is RHEV - almost no community testing.
These days shoving software into the beta or RC releases of Fedora - things which used to be tested throughout the entire Fedora testing cycle before.
