Ugg ... major cross-posting, I'll keep this short.
For those that have it in their power, a fedora-legacy mailling list would be 
appreciated.
When I look at the fedora-legacy web pages, that's all I see, FEDORA legacy, 
no redhat legacy.  To me this is saying that they have no intentions of 
allowing the community to put RedHat legacy in there (such as RedHat 7.3, or 
RedHat 9).
Is this true?
If it isn't, (meaning the community can support old redhat releases at the 
fedora-legacy area) it would be nice if we started at least getting the 
framework setup for the older RedHat legacy stuff.  This would allow us to 
start testing mirrors and such.  As well as give people a place to communicate 
in a more central place.
