Hi,

When redhat announced, that Redhat will be split into RH-Entreprise and Fedo
ra,
I heard something about the fact that the fedora community still supports RH
7.x
Distros.

Does anybody know

0) whether this is true ?
1) where one gets information about this support (for example about fixed
security holes)
2) whether fedora will continue to support those old RH distros, though redh
at
itself stoped the support at 01.01.2004 ?? where do I get updated packages a
nd
information ??

Thanks Boris

It is absolutely true. (But RH7.0 and 7.1 are not supported - I think as
the upgrade to at least 7.2 has always been a good idea for these releases.)

Information are spreaded through the announcement lists. See
