As Karanbir announced it today, there will be "nightly builds" happening
every day, starting from today (the first one being scheduled to start
at 8PM UTC).
The whole process will be automated and would also start to reflect
those new trees.
That means that the url to enter for new network install, and yum
repositories will need to be using the 'latest' symlink when that one
will appear. (Normally full URL would be
http://buildlogs.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64-latest)
As it will be the first time we'll test the end-to-end automation
script, we have no real ETA, but we estimate the "time-to-process"
between 3 and 4 hours (so content would be available on
buildlogs.centos.org around 11 pm UTC, or slightly later)

We've also worked today on the Live Media iso images, so those ones will
also be pushed on buildlogs.centos.org (later today, during the "nightly
build" process) (see also
https://git.centos.org/summary/sig-core!livemedia.git)

As a reminder :
* RPM packages are still unsigned
* yum config files are still missing (but you can point yum to the
mentioned repository)
* that tree is still "not production" ready and still needs to be
investigated (branding hunt, anyone ?)
* we count on you to provide feedback (positive or negative, but
feedback requested please)
* use #centos-devel (irc.freenode.net), @centos-devel list (here), but
also file bugs reports on our bugs tracking system
(http://bugs.centos.org) and report those under the "CentOS-7" project

So , (ab)use the tree, break it, fix it (by filing bug reports - patches
*welcome* :-) )
