 In case any of you are not aware, the Fedora Legacy project is in the
 process of shutting down.

Does have anyone a rscync line for me to get the whole FC3 tree to my local
hdd?
I am still using some FC3 boxes, and dont want to miss the FL packages if i
need some...

I wanted to do the same, but 'rsync download.fedoralegacy.org::legacy
legacy' told me I wasn't allowed to do that because I'm not a registered
mirror. The mirror page tells me mirror registration is disabled. Any
other way to get the tree without having to download each individual
package?

 I'm wondering if anybody is working on a communications piece for the  
 shutdown.  A who-what-when-where-why-how sort of article?  I'm  
 assuming it would be on the Wiki/homepage if it were, but here's  
 asking anyhow.

Reading this list over the last year or so would be good info.

 So, assuming it hasn't been, I can volunteer to put something  
 together, to save the multitudes the effort of investigation.  I  
 spent some time looking over the last couple months of mailing list  
 archives, the internetnews piece, and Jesse's blog, but I'm not  
 convinced I have the whole story.  Some outstanding questions would be:

    * was there any attempt to recruit new leadership?

Yes, leadership does no good without contributors.

    * ditto for sponsorship

Nobody has responded to our calls for help.  Nobody.

    * is there data on usage (I saw that 'interest was low' but I'm  
 not sure if it means interest in volunteering or interest in terms of  
 yum updates)

Sure, there are a good number of consumers, people who will happily consume 
until the project ends, however they are not willing to actually DO any of 
the work necessary to keep the project alive.  They would be better suited 
consuming updates from a product that is designed for their usage cases.

    * probably lots more I'm not thinking about now, and it's late so  
 my reading comprehension is likely sub-par

If you read the message more carefully you'll see that you aren't being denied 
access, only that mirrors have a special port to use that should the load 
become too high only the mirrors would get access.  You're perfectly capable 
of rsyncing all the content you want.
