I refer to minutes from one of the FESCO meetings where they discussed the issue. The point was raised that Fedora Infrastructure utilized Zope. But, the counter was that Fedora Infrastructure servers use RHEL5, so no problem. Sounds like the U. S. Congress making sure that they aren't impacted by their own decisions.
