I have to do a reinstallation off one off my servers and i can choose between FC3 and Debian3.1

I think FC3 don't be supported from RH anymore? But i never worked before with Debian :)

I can choose between FC3, Debian3.5 and Suse10.1.

It's very easy to upgrade FC3 to FC6, also Fedora is planning to change support date for OS from 6 months to 10months-1 year :) That's great.

smtalk, check the Fedora lists and note that the fedora legacy project is closing up ... which will make older versions of Fedora a lot harder to keep up to date.

Sure if you want to rebuild your server every 13 months.

Personally I don't see why folk aren't using CentOS which is good, with official updates, for years.

But of course that's just my opinion.

I 100% go for CentOS :) Some people don't like it because it hasn't the newest features/drivers :) But CentOS 5.x is comming ;) With kernel 2.6.20 etc.
