Hyperbole aside, ignoring history doesn't seem prudent.

Fedora Legacy (the original one) failed.

The last time something like this was proposed, it generated a few meetings
and some discussion here and on f-a-b.  I have yet to see anything actually
come of that.

Without a concrete group of people large enough to make this wory saying that
they are signing up to do that work, I don't have high hopes for this
succeeding in the long run.
