FedoraLegacy Question
Anyone out there been using FedoraLegacy for RH7 and RH8 for a while?
I'm curious to know how well it's been working out for you. How
frequent are the updates? I'm wondering if it'll be relatively safe
relying on FedoraLegacy for updates for production RH9 boxen.
Thanks in advance!

Maeth,
I upgraded from RH 7.3. Besides a GRUB problem, requiring a complete
install and not just an upgrade, it is a major improvement.Before the
complete install when I upgraded, it work great but I had to boot from a
floppy instead of GRUB. The people here are very helpful with any
questions you may have. I wouldn't hesitate to do it again, just back up
your current system first. We always forget some system parameters or
old email's we wished to keep.

Not much 
My system was fully uptodate using RedCarpet until RH drop
the support. I switched to YUM/legacy about a month ago
and had a few updates, but since none.
