It depends on what you mean ;)

If you mean to discontinue rh7.3-built binaries and replace them by FC1
compiled binaries, then this will probably render rpms and binaries
unusable for many users (RH < FC1; probably all Debian and SuSE users).
So I'd rather not discontinue supporting rh7.3.

Adding FC1 compiled binaries and making it your primary host/testing
system, however would be fine with me. 

Work-around: Build rh7.3 binaries in a rh7.3 chroot on FC1.
