I've tried to pass off leadership, and then that got a bit sabotaged by what Fedora Project wants to do with lifespan in future releases (which I think is a good happy middle ground), but it isn't really interesting to do support for older Fedoras for the next year or so. If somebody wants to run with it, by all means. I'll turn over information about how to use the build system and push to the mirrors. I don't want to see Legacy to touch the newer Fedora releases that might carry the new longer lifespan, I think 13 months is the best possible compromise. -- Jesse Keating RHCE (geek.j2solutions.net) Fedora Legacy Team (www.fedoralegacy.org) GPG Public Key (geek.j2solutions.net/jkeating.j2solutions.pub)
