Which work? Not shutting down builders and other infras for the EOL 
branches? In my proposal I propose to find somebody to do the signing,
which is the only part that requires work -- unless I am missing
something.

I am not competent in infrastructure building nor have I the time to 
lead a project which includes building an infrastructure. But I can lead
a project targeted at packaging the core of fedora for LTS -- but only
the packaging part.

Most of the SIGs don't need specific infrastructure. The analogy is
EPEL, but EPEL got support.
