What timing....
I have been off doing standards work, and not one of my passions of working on my arm systems.
Well a hard drive or two are failing and a couple other things are going wrong. So here comes C7armv7!
Over the next week I will rebuild medon.htt-consult.com with this release. This is a simple web server plus a few other odds and ends. Once I am confident, I will replace my other systems as I can.
Anyway, thank you all for your efforts. My paying gigs are security standards and not OS testing...
I will be around. Some.

== What's new (specific to armhfp) As before, CentOS 7 userland for armhfp is still built from the CentOS 7 distribution, with some modified, added (or removed) packages. Here are some highlights for the 7.3.1611 release :
- Kernel (for both rpi2/2 and generic boards) was bumped to 4.4.x (LTS
version) to also follow the i386 AltArch kernel.
- uboot images were updated to version 2016.09
- rootfs-resize (unmaintained) had issue when resizing FS bigger than
32Gb, and has been replaced by cloud-utils-growpart
- default image[s] for rpi2/rpi3 now also support selinux directly
