Hi all,
The usual apologies if this has been answered; I didn't see the answer anywhere on the site or googleing the archives...
Since CentOS is a RHEL rebuild (and this is brilliant!), does that imply that CentOS will continue to provide security patches and bug fixes so long as Red Hat continues to release them for a given version of RHEL? That's to say that Red Hat commits to 5 years of updates for any given version of RHEL. Will CentOS benefit for those same 5 years?
I ask because Scientific Linux commits (or, plans) to support 3 years after a release.
It is the CentOS plan to support our versions as long as the version of RHEL they track is supported ... we (and Lineox) are the only RHEL clones to have a 2.x, a 3.x, and a 4.x(beta) version right now.
