* The Fedora Project maintains any given release X until one month after the release of X+2. Unmaintained releases are said to be in End-of-life state (EOL) (so fedora Fedora 7 was End-of-life one month after Fedora 9 release). See [[LifeCycle]].
 
* Branches for new packages in CVS are not allowed for distribution X after the Fedora X+2 release. New builds are no longer allowed for EOL Fedora releases.
 
* Existing bugs against EOL releases are closed automatically.
 
* [[BugZappers/HouseKeeping#End_of_Life_.28EOL.29| New bugs for EOL releases are not looked at]].
 
* FESCo can approve exceptions of these rules if there are good reasons for it.
