What do you think ?
It definitely looks better.
But is it easy to update ? Over the course of a year I had to change it a few times. Usually to update it before a new presentation. Adding update releases, shifting support times.
Well ... each update needs a svg file modification and to update the related translation files. After that you'd have the image in as many languages as translation files exist.
Also, it is missing the update releases, which is an important item in comparison to Ubuntu LTS or SLES wrt. hardware support and new media.
Yep, where are those dates ? I would like to add them.
BTW The RHEL6 release will not be before the second quarter of 2009, possibly after Fedora 11. So as you can see that major releases have been shifting from 1.5 years to 2 year and now past 2 years.
At that pace 7 years may no longer constitute 4 releases. Unless Red Hat will at some point in time push the support time to 8 years or more. In itself not unthinkable if the company keeps growing.
Guys, could you provide a table with CentOS Relsease/Update dates. Those that you would like to see in the graphical display ?
I'd be interested to look at the SVG to see how we could improve it further and whether it is mergable in OpenOffice (SVG support is flaky at best).
Absolutely. It would be released in https://projects.centos.org/svn/artwork/trunk/Main/svg/templates/ very soon.
