Not ideal -- but the community has the power to resurrect Legacy, if they
so choose.  Fedora Unity, for instance, could very well run their own
version of the Legacy project.  Realistically, though: without a
substantial number of Legacy volunteers, the Legacy project is just not
viable.  Especially when compared to CentOS.

If it happens that fedora is closing down, Fedora Legacy, is there a
chance to work with Centos so that those fedora versions which were
supposed to be directed to Legacy be tuned _automatically_ to work
with centos repositories ?

It wont work that way. CentOS repositories since they are rebuilds of RHEL will likely carry older versions of software with backported fixes. Pointing Fedora to CentOS repositories doesnt make any sense at all. They are two different variants.
