Volunteers are calling it quits on a project called Fedora Legacy to provide long-term support for Red Hat's hobbyist-oriented Fedora version of Linux. "The Fedora Legacy project is in the process of shutting down," said project organizers Jesse Keating and David Eisenstein in a Fedora Legacy mailing list posting Friday. The organizers didn't provide a specific reason for the decision, but a lack of contributions from outside programmers contributed, Keating said in a separate mailing list posting.

Couldn't agree more, the Linux landscape changes so quickly that legacy quickly means obsolete.
Servers are a different animal, long term, slow releases are desired there, and a legacy support network there is appreciated.
but desktop? who's running an outdated desktop except someone with older hardware. (and if that's you, come on! there are distro's built for you!)
