Fedora 7 Will Die on June 13th

Courtesy Digg Linux/Unix upcoming  Fri, 05/02/2008 - 23:30

As newer distributions appear, older ones have to retire. This will happen with Fedora 7 on the so-called unlucky day of June 13, 2008 (one month after the release of Fedora 9).

The end of life actually means that Fedora 7 users will not receive security/critical fixes and software updates anymore.
