http://security.freebsd.org/#sup lists the releases currently with 
active security updates and their EOL dates.

Upgrading the 6.2 buildbot to 6.4 would seem a good idea to me.
Unfortunately FreeBSD's binary update capability only became available
with 6.3... :-(

A separate 7.2 buildbot (which could then be binary updated to 7.3
on release) would also seem a good idea.

8.0 is at RC3 and could be expected to be finalised fairly soon.

My understanding is there won't be another 6.x release, and I'm 
inferring that there will be one more 7.x release (7.3).

Andrew.
