In the expected place for srpms for RHEL7 there is a README
ftp.redhat.org:/redhat/linux/enterprise/7Server/en/os/README
It's contents are
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Current sources for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 have been moved to the
following
location:
https://git.centos.org/project/rpms
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who/what is populating this area?
How are updates to packages handled? Do they go straight to
https://git.centos.org/project/rpms/ as the updates are published by
RedHat?
Does CentOS modify any of these packages?
Since it is implied that this "represents" the "srpm" for a given RHEL
package (given the above README from ftp.redhat.com) how do I know it has
not been tampered with?

Hi
Yup, its that question again : do we want to leave, but
patch-to-non-functional the rhn and subscription-manager tools in the
distro. I know its useful to some projects to leave in, but do they care ?

I had a look at http://buildlogs.centos.org/centos/7/os/x86_64-20140614/ but I could not find any qcow images for a VM guest.
Is it planned to produce one ?
Creating a cloud instance is our lowest effort way of testing new releases.
Thanks
Tim
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* :-) )

Guillaume,
Don't see why not, sounds like the right place for it? I rebuilt a 6
kernel some while back for work that had MP-TCP and F-RTO in it along with
some twiddling of initRTO as well, those other two are in mainstream now
and the MP-TCP patch must have been fairly simple if I managed to work it
in. Shout if you need any help, I've got some doco somewhere.

Hello everyone,
I am thinking about building custom kernels for CentOS-7 with a support for Multipath-TCP (http://multipath-tcp.org/) and I am wondering if a such heavy modification should have its place in the centosplus kernel?
Modified kernel sources are available at https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp and equivalent patches are there: http://multipath-tcp.org/patches/.
Best regards,
Guillaume Derval.
hi,
So we now have RHEL media, RHEL optionals and RHEL Extras. Optionals and
media seems to tie in as before, however Extras has its own policy +
lifeterm etc.
Thoughts on what we might do with those rpms ? I'd have though that
putting them in CentOS-Extras would line up nicely. Content that is
available out of the blocks to anyone with a CentOS install, but not
themselves included in the distro.
thoughts ?
