The sound is bad,
/ Lance vanished from the project some time in 2008. Everybody needs time off from projects from time to time, so there was no real need to worry about that. What there was to worry about is the following: Lance is the only one, who can make active changes to the centos.org domain, as he “owns it”. Nobody else in the team is able to add nameservers, for instance. Recently he put an anonymizing service on the domain, so that nobody from the outside can see who that domain belongs to. /
Ummm. That mostly has been resolved around a month ago, you might want to check dates on things you mail somewhere.

Btw the homepage says:
" More information will follow soon. [..] Last Update: August 1, 2009 04:34 UTC by Donavan Nelson"
Today is September 14th, so what does "soon" mean here?
Chris
Soon means we will post when something changes.
The last update is still correct.
The CentOS project has the domain names in question, we have released 4.8, we have some packages from 5.4 in question, and everything is 100% solved from a technical stand point.
Basically CentOS is exactly what it was before any of this happened from a technical standpoint.
Updates to packages are happening within 24 hours, 5.4 is on track and will soon be pushed soon.
If you want a multi-billion dollar corporation behind your Linux distribution, then use RHEL nad pay for it.
If you want what you have gotten from CentOS for the last 5 years, you are getting that now.
Do we have to have this conversation again?
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
Actually I was much more interested in non technical info. Like what happend to donations in the past. How will donations in the future be used/handled. Will there be a cashier etc. etc.
