Historically, we've supported upgrades from N-2 on the premise that that's

extended lifecycle, someone can be on a maintained FC5 installation when
F7 is released. Anything other than that is gravy. There hasn't been specific
policy about garbage collecting obsoletes, to the the best of my knowledge.
Strawman would be if we're supporting N-2, to garbage collect after N-4?
I think we should not say anything about garbage collecting obsoletes,
and let the maintainer do whatever they prefer.
We could add to the guidelines that one should support upgrading from
N-2, though, this seems reasonable to me.
