up2date supports Fedora today. RHN will not be "migrated to Fedora" -
that statement doesn't make sense.  RHN will support multiple releases.
It supports releases at least as far back as 6.2 today, even though no
new security updates have been issued since the end of March (and there
are issues with the latest certificates on 6.2).  Still, today, RHN
suports at least 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, 9, Fedora, AS2.1, and Taroon.
Multiply that by the large number of architectures also supported for
AS2.1 and Taroon, and you've got quite a few combinations.

Waiting is a good strategy.  There will be a release that should address
your needs.  Be patient.  I do not know when the announcement will be
forthcoming, and I'm hoping that some details will be released soon
(like within a week).
