RHEL4 is still a fully support product from Redhat and as such still recieves new features and such RHEL4 will be going into Production 2 status here soon (around 1st of the year i think) at that time it will go into maintenance only or Production 2 support status and will no long receive new features but will continue receiving bug fixes etc..
So from Redhat POV, this is completely normal to see these releases William 'Doug' Carroll Mainframe Systems Eng Sr I Global Technology Infrastructure ECS Virtualization Technology Office: (614) 213-4954 Pager: 8773282157 Cell: (614) 209-0649 Fax: (614) 244-9897 Home Fax: (866) 543-9156 http://www.jpmchase.com "Chase, John" <[EMAIL PROTECTED] > To Sent by: Linux on LINUX-390@VM.MARIST.EDU 390 Port cc <[EMAIL PROTECTED] IST.EDU> Subject Re: RHEL 4.7 now available 07/25/2008 08:42 AM Please respond to Linux on 390 Port <[EMAIL PROTECTED] IST.EDU> > -----Original Message----- > From: Linux on 390 Port On Behalf Of Brad Hinson > > Copy/paste from announcement today.

Seems unusual for a _release_ upgrade to be announced for a prior version (relatively) long after a newer _version_ has been generally available (how long has RHEL 5.x been out?). -jc- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ----------------------------------------- This communication is for informational purposes only.
