If you really are more interested in a stable platform with only important security updates, then really Fedora isn't for you. Fedora stays as close to upstream as possible and frequently, in fact most often I would say, updates are not security related and just package updates. Occasionally things get broken by this fast turn over. It sounds like you should look at more stable distro like centos or scientific linux (free RHEL clones without the service agreements) as perhaps being more suitable to your needs. SL5 is now out, and whilst not quite as new and funky as Fedora7, still fairly up to date. Chris
