YES!  I forgot to mention this in my blog, but when we were doing the RHL 
updates, there was a LOT of interest and a lot of community participation, 
and the project worked pretty darn well.  I think it became evident by the 
dramatic drop in participation that there just wasn't the interest we thought 
there would be in long term Fedora releases.  This is why I think its OK in 
slightly extending the 'official' lifespan and bringing Legacy in to help 
with that aspect.

Thank you for your feedback Eric, you've forever kept us honest!  (:
