says:

"The Fedora Education Spin was in development from F10 to F12 and has 
ceased production since then."

Look at http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Build_Your_Own_Remix_with_Fedora

su -c 'yum install livecd-tools spin-kickstarts'


I have sucessfully used livecd-tools to build a remix in f15 using the 
spin-kickstart file for gnome and adding @sugar-desktop to the Remix .ks
This can be also done in reverse with Soas.ks with @gnome being added.

Cordially;
