That is not really true.  2.6.16 (the first kernel that I recall anyone
calling some equivalent of "LTS") was released 12.5 years ago, while FC5
was fresh.  I do recall its existence being considered in the
discussions that happened in the FC6 timeframe, though I wasn't involved
in all of those.  It was a very interesting time with the core-extras
merge and the community finally having a say in the maintenance of every
piece of the distro.  Obviously the release cadence and lifecycle was a
big topic.
