My understanding was that updates, both security-related and
non-security-related would continue for F-N until F-N+1 was released.  At
that point, F-N would join F-N-1 in a security-only mode until EOL. 
People expect churn on Fedora, so stay on the bleeding edge (not so
bleeding as rawhide, mind you). Is that not correct?
