I think the problem is that people have a hard time seeing what each
other is talking about. I think this is what the upgrade policy is.
Release EOL
Fedora 8 2007-11-10 2008-12-25?
Fedora 9 2008-05-13 2008-05-XX
Fedora 10 2008-11-25? 2008-11-XX
Fedora 11 2008-05-XX 2009-05-XX
I don't know who the idiot who wrote this is... but boy he should be shot.

If Fedora were to make its schedules of 6 months.. and I am at
Fedora
8, I have 7 months to move from Fedora 8 -> 9 since 8 isn't available
til 6 months out of my 13 month support. Now the lifetime of Fedora 8
would be 13 months.. but my window to upgrade before I lose security
is 7 months.
