Alain,
I am afraid there is too much information on a single page, and it is harder to understand because of those dates you added.
Also I would not call it "Full Updates" and "Maintenance Updates". Red Hat turned away from those names and now call it phase 1, phase 2 and phase 3 (iirc) so that you are forced to read what they mean. I am sure marketing wanted to avoid people to only take notice of when they had "Full updates" aka. "Full support".
Update releases are now officially every 6 months.
Also the Full Updates phase should be 4 years out of the 7 years for RHEL4 and RHEL5. To me it looks like it is only 3 years on your slide. (eg. RHEL4 is not out of Full Support yet).
The location of the minor release number is very confusing, I think people may make the wrong conclusion based on the location inside of the bar.
Suffice to say I like my original slide over this one.
PS I noticed there was "Maintainance Updates" in the slide instead of Maintenance.

Dag, could we work together in the graphical display building ?
I'd appretiate a table or somthing with relevant dates, concepts ... one for CentOS and maybe one for RHEL ... maybe we could open a page in the wiki to list this kind of information and to list how these graphical display should be conceived. It would be a place to put ideas, progress and whatever people consider helpfull.
Karan: The logo image and Login link in https://projects.centos.org/trac/artwork seem to be desapierd. Do you know something about it ?
PS I noticed there was "Maintainance Updates" in the slide instead of Maintenance.
Yep, I mistaken the word here ... I'll fix it on the next render :).
Thanks, al.

Fixed now, and should stay fixed. I ran a security audit on the machine a few days back, which changed permissions for those logo files in a way that apache was no longer able to read them.

I am trying to do some user-testing on this image, will post results and comments back here to this thread in a day or so. If anyone else wants to do that as well, be great!
