Fedora cannot be ignored as a forward-leaning Linux distribution to see what the future might bring. Debian, Ubuntu and their derivatives are popular with developers for good reasons, so they have to be on the list (which they are already). If Python is used as a teaching tool, IPython notebooks are extremely powerful as they let you create and run code in a browser - an environment amenable to sharing, even remotely if Git is used for assistance.
