- "when a release goes EOL open all acls to uberpackagers" -- At least initially I'd rather see this applied to a single release. (ie: target F8 to be a long term release or target F9 as a long term release rather than all releases)
- "Also it is not possible currently to report bug against these packages." -- I'm not certain but I don't think we have the ability to lock down bugzilla like this.
- "especially if some work has to be done from the infrastructure team" -- releng should be included in this as well. Until a signing server is created, signing the packages will likely need either releng to help or infrastructure to create a separate sandbox for signing these packages.

- I still feel this is a bad idea - no guarantee (or even promise, or pledge) that anything will be fixed; the set of what may be fixed can change at any time (leading to different things being fixed at different rates, etc.)
- In any case, this speaks to 1) infrastructure 2) use of the Fedora 'brand' (including possibly the trademarks) 3) the goals of the project itself. It's a board-level issue, not a FESCo issue.

- size estimates - one concern I have is if we leave the old packages buildable, will everyone keep building against them? If so how many extra packages are to be stored in koji? What's the estimated increase in size?

Bugzilla
- Will we continue to accept bug reports?
- How can we maintain three versions when we can't maintain two?
- When will releases close? Ever? Or is there a specific time when they will stop getting any updates and close for good?
- How does this figure into the bugzappers bug lifecycle handling? Should only security bugs get fixed in these LTS releases?
How about serious bugs? Bugs that annoy a maintainer? Any bug?
- How can you get maintainers helping when it's not advertised anywhere? How will they know? Perhaps there would be some way to indicate if a maintainer wanted to maintain their packages for old releases?
