best linux version to use that is up to date now that fedora coreis no longer being updated with speakup

[Nick Gawronski]

Hi, well, I would prefer fedora with speakup but mainly I want some linux 
version that has speakup in the installation so I don't need sited 
assistance to install it.  I really liked redhat now fedora but as it is not 
being updated with speakup any more sense version 3 I don't want to just 
reinstall 3 as it is very old now.  I like fedora rpm management.
