Is the estimated EoL for 7.2-RELEASE really "May 31, 2010"?  It looks
strange, because the eEoL is "Jan 31, 2011" for 7.1-RELEASE and "Nov 30,
2010" for 6.4-RELEASE.  There is also general rule for RELENG_7 that
says: "last release + 2 years".

I think "May 31, 2011" for 7.2-RELEASE would be more reasonable, but
maybe I am missing something.

Cheers,
