This is not a guarantee. This is not a</div><div>contract. We have to _trust_ the CentOS team (board) to do this.

Therefore, until proven otherwise, I can no longer trust</div><div>anything coming from CentOS. They have proven that they will change</div><div>the direction of CentOS at any time.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Jeff</div><div><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><br>
