== Description ==
<!-- Put a description of the task here. -->
Each release of Fedora is maintained as laid out in the [[Fedora_Release_Life_Cycle#Maintenance_Schedule | maintenance schedule]].  At the conclusion of the maintenance period, a Fedora release enters ''end of life'' status. This procedure describes the tasks necessary to move a release to that status.


== Actions ==
<!-- Use headings to list out tasks in some semblance of chronological order, then flesh them out... I don't know them all, just guessing. -->
=== Set date ===
* Releng responsibilities:
** Follow guidelines of [[Fedora_Release_Life_Cycle#Maintenance_Schedule | maintenance schedule]]
** Take into account any infrastructure or other supporting project resource contention
** Announce the closure of the release to the package maintainers.
=== Reminder announcement ===
* from rel-eng to f-devel-announce, f-announce-l, including
** date of last update push (if needed)
** date of actual EOL
=== Koji tasks ===
* disable builds by removing targets
<pre>
koji remove-target f19
koji remove-target f19-updates-candidate
</pre>
* Purge from disk the signed copies of rpms that are signed with the EOL'd release key
=== Bodhi tasks ===
*
In puppet, set the push scripts to not push the old release:
<pre>
diff --git a/configs/system/fedora-updates-push
b/configs/system/fedora-updates-push
