Yep, this was the conclusion we came to for the FC3 and FC4 stuff.  FC5
was still a discussion as to if we wanted it disabled by default.

Already working on this.  Legacy is now officially a subproject of
Fedora, with me as the Chairman of the Fedora Legacy Project Management
Committee.  What does this mean?  Nothing yet, I'm still trying to sort
how we'll fit into this, and others to have on the committee.  But this
does mean that I can now continue with discussions such as having FL
repo info shipped w/ FC5 and future releases.
