After FC6 part is not important here. Whats important is that several 
users in the list have expressed their opinion that the term "legacy" 
has negative canotations associated with it. I do not feel so. In fact I 
think legacy is a perfectly suitable name for what this project stands 
for but we can listen to the users here. If we do get more community 
contributions and users by doing something as simple as expanding on a 
name and lowering the barrier to entry by providing seamless transition 
between Fedora Core and Fedora Legacy, lets shoot for it.We need all the 
people we can get. If we have to set aside our own preferences and bend 
a little to enable this to happen, so be it.
