Okay, so that begs the question...IIRC, the Fedora community will only
support a released version of FC for approx two months after the release of
a new version, which means that FC1 and RHL9 will both have their
errata/security update support discontinued at about the same time.  For
what amount of time is the WBEL community committing to support a released
version after the next one comes out?

And will errata/security updates be available via up2date/yum/apt/some other
automated scheme?
