For a while at least, you've got the Fedora Legacy project, but that only
buys you 18 months or so at which point you'll right back here. Beyond
that, no. They stated when they started that this was the plan, you knew
(or should of) that when you opted for Fedora Core, you've only yourself
to blame.

This is where you ask yourself, "what long-support cycle distribution do

your poison and live with it.
