After reding the Fedora Linux Project website I got the ipression (later 
confirmed when talking with RH engineers) that Fedora Core is not meant to be 
used in "enterprise environment". 

And Fedora Legacy Project was born to provide support to phased-out Red Hat 
Linux distributions and to-be-phased-out Fedora Core distributions, as Fedora 
Core's official support is very short.

Fedora Linux PRoject and Fedora Legacy Project are community-oriented 
projects. Fedora Legacy is totaly community-driven project.

So , IMHO, there's no need to post every 2 sentences a discclaimer saying 
"Warning! F.L.P. is not corporate-grade nor ISO9001! "

In FLP main page it says:

"What is The Fedora Legacy Project?

The Fedora Legacy Project is a community-supported open source project. It is 
not a supported project of Red Hat, Inc. although Red Hat, Inc. does provide 
some support services for it.

The goal of The Fedora Legacy Project is to work with the Linux community to 
provide security and critical bug fix errata packages for select End of Life 
Red Hat Linux and Fedora Core distributions. This will allow for a longer 
effective life for those releases.

To learn more please refer to the About page and the FAQs. "

This is on the top-center part of the page. Impossible to avoid.

Regards,
Josep
