Fedora Legacy

[Erich Schroeder <erich@museum.state.il.us>]

Hi,
  I don't think that this has been mentioned here other than just in
passing, but the Fedora Legacy project is active and available.

http://fedoralegacy.org/

This is the project to support older redhat/fedora products past their 
end-of-life. As an example, today a security fix for RH 7.2, 7.3 and 8.0 
kernels was released. These are available via apt using an entry in 
sources.list in the form of:

rpm http://download.fedoralegacy.org/apt redhat/7.3/i386 os updates 
legacy-utils

(That should be all one line, if it isn't).

This is mighty good for those of us who are limited to RH 7.3 (for 
example) because of dependancies of some commercial product.

Erich
