But thats the purpose of the legacy project - to provide updates, even
when RH stops providing it. It's not appropriate to roll another
distribution and call it RHL9.0+Legacy

However, there are scripts that roll updates together so you can roll
your own ISOs, especially if you have plenty of deployments
