I think at least this time the choice of F8 is obvious:
* It's the version to go EOL next.
* F9 is a version with huge changes:
  - KDE 4
  - X.Org X11R7.4 (server 1.5.0)
  - GCC 4.3
  etc.
  all of which contribute to people being stuck on F8.

Frankly, if even the manpower to maintain F8 now can't be found, then I doubt 
there will ever be enough manpower for an LTS release.
