Hi Rahul, I just browsed through some fedora-devel-list posts from  
this month, so far all I see is two people in a thread: "RFE: Retire  
Fedora Core 4 only _after_ FC6 has been released." who mention that  
they think "legacy" has negative connotation(s).  Are there other  
posts I'm missing, or is that what you were referring to?
