OK, I'd like to suggest adding something like this to the sidebar on the 
home page, either right above or right below the News section:

     <div class="fl-side-right-content">
     <h1>Current Releases</h1>

     <p>Releases currently supported by Fedora Legacy.</p>
     <ul>
         <li>Red Hat Linux 7.3</li>
         <li>Red Hat Linux 9</li>
	<li>Fedora Core 1</li>
     </ul>
     </div>

This would be updated whenever FL picks up or drops a release, so we 
would add Fedora Core 2 in a few weeks.  We could also list pending 
releases, like "<li>Fedora Core 2 (beginning March 21, 2005)</li>" 
(dropping the date once we reach it) and deprecated releases, like 
"<li>Fedora Core 1 (until such-and-such)</li>" once a date has been 
chosen to start/stop support.

The idea is that at a glance, someone who is unfamiliar with the project 
will know immediately which releases can be brought/kept up using FL, 
and a year or two down the road someone who has fired-and-forgotten a 
config with, say, FC1 will realize immediately why there haven't been 
any updates since early 2006 (or whenever).
