I would have assumed that this release would be "7.1.1503", and the URL
on at least one mirror has:
http://mirror.fdcservers.net/centos/7.1.1503/
Guess if that's the new convention, I'll need to keep my ISO files sorted out somehow, as this progression isn't intuitive:
CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-DVD.iso CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1503.iso
Please take a look at the "Archived Versions", and the Release
Announcement:
They both tell you that 7 (1503) is derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1 Sources. So, yes, this release, that you quoted in the Subject, is indeed exactly what you said.
It seems that also the redhat-release file has changed.Previously, it was : [root@centos7 ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core)
Now it is : [root@centos-test ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release Derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.1 (Source)
It is also my opinion that the name CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1503.iso is rather confusing, it is not immediately evident that it is release 7.1. I would have prefered the name CentOS-7.1-1503-x86_64-DVD.iso, following the previous name convention.
Well, we are now using a new naming convention .. although, we have update /etc/cetnos-release/
This naming convention was voted on by the CentOS Board and discussed on the CentOS-Devel mailing list. It is what we are using moving forward. Please become familiar with it,as we do not expect to change it again.
