But within the fedora infrastructure, and with the fedora rules (unlike fedora legacy that had different infrastructure and rules).
What's so important about the fedora infrastructure that it is required to release updates past EOL ? The rules I can understand (even if I don't agree) but those can be replicated elsewhere.
But why didn't you try ?
It requires hardware and some admins to have a build system. I don't have the time, nor the computers.
Your proposal sounded like a good idea (although I think you're right that not enough people are interested in it for it to be viable) and I think it's a shame that you didn't go ahead and implement it.
I cannot do that on my own. I am a packager and I know next to nothing about how to set up a buildsystem. It took quite a long time for rpmfusion to do that I don't have that time (nor the hardware).
