    There was almost no comnunity support for RH 8.0 testing, and even less for
    RH 8.0 development, so it was put on hold. If people make a commitment
    to help, then it would probably be added back in.

    But for the developers to spend all the extra time creating RH 8.0 packages
    and then have no one test them was just drag on the other projects (e.g.
    RH 9, RH 7.3) where people were helping with QA and testing.

    Progeny has a pay service.

    Yes, it would. But Fedora Legacy depends on community support...
