For my case, I have one FC1, one FC2 and one FC3 (firewall) left. I've migrated everything else to a RHEL derivative. The FC1 will be rebuilt soon, the FC2 decommissioned after that and the FC3 already has it's replacement server, I just need time to "flick the switch". Although I like and highly respect the communities (both Fedora and FL) I find these days I have little time to contribute and "play" with distributions - life gets in the way :P - so my involvement with both Fedora and FL will cease when I've migrated those last 3 machines and I'll unlist myself from the mailing lists.
