[And yes, you are going to need to deal with infrastructure. Disk space, cpu cycles, memory and power is not 'cheap' as much as people think it is. Extra build boxes will be needed, extra disk space to store stuff, and extra cpu cycles as Fedora's current infrastructure is built on the assumption that it only needs to deal with X releases for Y time. Adding to X and Y means more equipment needed. It will also mean that someone's on the team are going ot have to focus on the infrastructure problems as that addition also increases the number of people needed to watch builds, etc.
along with infrastructure, you need a release engineer.
I guess, you will apply the same rationale when EPEL6 comes out?
