Extending the life cycle of Fedora releases
-------------------------------------------
As proposed earlier in the Fedora Summit [1], Fedora Project has decided
to extend the life cycle of Fedora releases. Previously every release of
Fedora reaches end of life after FCn+2 test 2 is released which is
approximately 9 months. We have now extended this such that every
release of Fedora is maintained for a month after FCn+2 is released.
Maybe add "resulting to a net release life of approximately 13
months"? We'd like to stress the improvement of 4 additional months,
many users will not really know the internals of Fedora release
cycles.
Ok.
This means end users of Fedora Core 5 and Fedora Core 6 will now get
updates till after a month after the release of Fedora 7 and 8
respectively. This was planned to allow end users the ability to
optionally skip every other release and directly upgrade from N to N+1
release of Fedora.
You mean "from N to N+2".
Duh, yes. Paul W. Frields did it better now. Jesse Keating, do you want
to mention Fedora Legacy in this?
