could we fix the scary upload wiki page?

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrading

I'm not excatly sure what this page *should* look like, but I just saw
someone give the well-meaning advice that Fedora 17 was the latest release
that one could upgrade to. The big warning sure looks scary.

Now that F18 is our latest supported release, could we tone down the message
a little bit? Something like "You can upgrade to a new Fedora release with
FedUp, which has replaced the old Anaconda-based process." and then a little
later, in a non-warning box, "If you are using an older unsupported version
of Fedora, we recommend backing up your data and overwriting the old
installation with a fresh install."
