Re: RH 9 EOL Updates ISOs

[Greg Bailey <gbailey@xxxxxxxxx>]

I did something similar for RedHat 7.3 at its EOL.  The frustrating 
thing (as a former RedHat mirror admin) is that RedHat doesn't really 
have a policy for removing superseded errata from the updates tree.  
Upon request, they've periodically purged the updates tree of old RPMs, 
but even RedHat 9 still has duplicate packages.  Once they do that, it 
doesn't seem too difficult to produce an ISO (or two).

Is this something useful for FedoraLegacy to include in its distribution 
tree?

Thanks,
Greg
