It means that there will be no more updates for it (or F12, either) and
that includes security updates. As time goes on, there will be fewer
and fewer people who will be able (or willing, for that matter) to help
you. About the only place that you're likely to get help for it any
more is at fedoraforums.org, and only because they have a special forum
for versions that are past their EOL.
Right now, the latest version is F14 and the only two versions supported
are 13 and 14. If you aren't interested in upgrading your OS every six
to nine months, Fedora probably isn't the right distro for you but if
you like the idea (as I do) of living on the bleeding edge and helping
find out if the newest version of some package is "ready for prime
time," by all means, use Fedora. The choice is yours and yours alone,
which is one of the many things I like about Linux in general.
