Hey look, are we Red Hat Enterprise?  No.  Do we compete with Red Hat
Enterprise?  No.  Do we WANT to compete with Red Hat Enterprise?  No.
Please do NOT make that assumption.

RH QA processes for Enterprise products are NOT the same for Fedora
products.  Given that Fedora Legacy is about, um, lets see... FEDORA, my
statements are in fact true.

I'll state it again, loud and clear.  Fedora Legacy is NOT an
alternative to Red Hat Enterprise Linux.  It does not have the same
goal, it does not have the same features, it does not have the same
responsibility.  PERIOD.  If you require the features and goals of Red
Hat Enterprise, please USE Red Hat Enterprise, or one of it's rebuild
projects such as CentOS by the cAos group.
