Security fixes have been applied to the 3.3 trees already. A yum update should apply them for you. As for the bug fixes and enhancements, I have added some of those to the 3.3 x86_64 tree, with the rest of them to follow shortly. Thus, eventually, a yum update will essentially move you to 3.4.
I believe the i386 3.3 tree will be similar, unless I've missed something.
I will also be posting a separate 3.4 tree for x86_64, complete with isos. It is being built and will be tested soon.
Lance and others can chime in with more details, as he's further along with 3.4 than I am.
i am just talking about the i386 right now, but i assume it would apply to both. the updates necessary to get 3.3 to 3.4 will be in the 3.3 patch tree and after they are applied, my systems will look at a 3.4 patch tree? is that the basic model? i am also trying to figure out how to change my patch mirror.
i know that scheduled quarterly updates was a part of the redhat enterprise model. once redhat has rolled from u3 to u4, i am assuming that they no longer provide security patches for u3, right? so therefore centos wouldn't have patches for 3.3 after 3.4 is official?
