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.

See

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.

I believe there was some relevant information in this year's Red Hat 
Enterprise Linux Roadmap 
 at Red Hat Summit.

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?

[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
