Hi,
Anybody knows when the new kernel package will be ready?
regards,
We will release 4.4 about 2 weeks after it's release bt the upstream provider.
I think people are gettin ansi for 4.4 for various reasons... but we all should be cool bout it cuz it just ain't gonna happen for awhile...Johnny and crew can't do anything til RH releases and I think it was on RedHat's site a few days back I read that the projected release date was around the end of the year so yes, it will be awhile.

If you are that impatient, you could always use the fasttrack repo; /quote
There is a new channel provided by the upstream provider called fastrack.
This channel will have RPMS that are going to be included in the normal update sets (3-4 times per year), but released once a week. These RPMS will normally be bugfix or enhancement updates and not Security updates.
Accordingly, CentOS has created a fasttrack (note the spelling difference, it is intentional) repo. This repo will track the upstream fastrack channel.
If you would like to use the FastTrack repo for CentOS-4, copy the file CentOS-fasttrack.repo into your /etc/yum.repos.d/ directory and it will be enabled.
See this upstream mailing list post for more info on fastrack:
