nope.. i guess CentOS want be never goes die, it change in a other way ..
so a "evergreen release" direction in short *s* so, "rolling release"
and takes time in time Releasenumbers and set therewith steps where have to go..
it pretty much standardizes and makes the path easier... so is the path/way the target ..and take up the direction .. by rolling.. or so..

I'd rather be a free person who fears terrorists, than be a "safe" person who fears the government.

I am not sure I like this at all. Looks like the " One server to rule them all" policy. Centralizing and Streaming from that great evil server controlled by Sauron...... :C
Manjaro 64bit on the main box -Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz and nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 275] (rev a1. + Centos on the server - Arch on the laptop.
