Problem is I am willing to support Fedora Core 3 64 bit, but I've been
unable to.  I don't have the time to track the bugs and do publish votes
right now (maybe I will later).  And by the time I install the updates-testing
stuff (which I do on a regular basis), test it for a day or so, write up
a report, the damn things already been released!  So my testing is useless
as I can't get it done before the package is released...

So, it may look like no one has any interest in FC3, but in reality I do.
If the release was say 6 days instead of 4, I could actually test the stuff.
I'm not in a position where I can stop my life to test the updates-testing
stuff just because we want a 4 day release period.

Yes, if we don't do a strict 1-2-3-out, then this is the way to go;
keep what people support, dump what they won't support.
