-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 (sorry about the cross post, this is vital information to get out) The following naming conventions have been established for posts to the CentOS-announce mailing list. The purpose is to ensure uniformity across products, architectures, releases etc. This will allow easier and simpler automated CESA (CentOS Errata and Security Advisory) processing by end users. === CentOS-announce Subject Construction Guidelines for Errata and Product Announcements ~ For Errata Postings (all one line) ~ Subject: [CentOS-announce] CESA-$NUMBER: $priority CentOS $release $arch $package - $brief_description ~ First Line of Message: CentOS Errata and Security Advisory $NUMBER ~ where: ~ $NUMBER: use $RH_NUMBER if the matter is a result ~ of a RH?A, if not, YYYY-MMDD-SEQ ~ where: ~ YYYY-MMDD -- is in UTC, ~ SEQ is an increasing 3 digit number starting ~ at 000 each day, for the time being SEQ ~ numbers will be stored on the master mirror ~ in /centos/centos-cesa.txt. Developers ~ posting errata with a $NUMBER that is ~ CentOS errata will need to check the file for ~ an existing number for a given problem or ~ create a new number and add it to the file. ~ $priority: follows RH levels ~ $release: one of 4, 3, or 2 ~ For Product Releases (all one line) ~ Subject: [CentOS-announce] Release Announcement: $name $version $arch Note: [CentOS-announce] is automatically added by mailman. Note: All official announcements should be signed by your CentOS ~ signed key. Note: Not all $variable's are described above. === -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCS3ynCRFXD+VcGBkRAm8YAKCEvaazYDK97s1Q+iGWah8bFdVb9QCfaEcb HGdUPF4vB4TAugFjXG3D24U= =sOE8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Welcome to the New CentOS-devel Mailing List
by Lance Davis 29 Mar '05

29 Mar '05

As you will know from recent posts, CentOS is separating from cAos to become an independent project. As part of that change we are implementing new mailing lists. This new mailing list is now known as centos-devel(a)centos.org and you have been subscribed to it if you were subscribed to centos-devel(a)caosity.org. Due to the large number of people subscribed it has not been possible to retain options etc across to the new list, so if you only want to receive digests or need to change any other options then you will need to login to change them. You can find out the password assigned to you by having it emailled to you from :- http://lists.centos.org/mailman/options/centos-devel The archive of posts has been transferred across to the new list manager, and posts to the old address will make it to the new list. Regards Lance -- uklinux.net - The ISP of choice for the discerning Linux user.
