 See slide 11.

 Also includes info relevant to the large filesystem thread. Seems EL7
 may ship with XFS as the default filesystem if it passes validation. (Slide
 17).

 A very good read; time will tell how much actually comes to pass.

It is interesting. I also see Samba 3.x, not Samba 4.x. *Rats*. I was
hoping for built-in Active Directory server replacements: guess I'll
be rebundling the work I've done backporting Samba 4.0.7 to RHEL 6.
And the slides don't say anything about the migration from SysV init
scripts to systemd: that is going to be a *serious* adventure for
3rd-party open source components, like EPEL and Repoforge and atrpms.

 that targets RHEL 7.  Is 7 in beta?  Any target date
 to the general release?  Red Hat's web site is still
 saying 6 is it.

I've see a few bugs talking about RHEL 7 alpha.  Usually there are
a few public betas for RHEL and then it still takes many months
before GA.  Personally, I'd be surprised of RHEL 7 GA will be this
year.

Any rumors on rhel 7?

2013-07-26 Thread Todd And Margo Chester

Hi All,

I just got a bug update:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=988732

that targets RHEL 7.  Is 7 in beta?  Any target date
to the general release?  Red Hat's web site is still
saying 6 is it.

Many thanks,
-T
