Fedora 14 never supported MeeGo. It was all present but had issues.

Tablets are still very well supported in Fedora despite the fact that
meego netbook UX isn't supported. The tablet UX is completely
different.

Yes. And that is still the case in Fedora 14 and will continue to be
in Fedora 15. The blog you post is from one of the Fedora artwork
designers. She uses it all the time and any regressions are generally
fixed pretty quickly. Again it has nothing to do with the MeeGo UX.
