Exactly ... (meaning, it is not officially in use yet :))
Ok, when we're already discussing the update/errata announcements here are some more things to consider:
- all announcements should be GPG signed by a central CENTOS key
no - they are signed by individual keys that have been signed by a central centos key.
- md5sums and/or sha1sums should be listed next to each rpm filename
- the announcements should be a little more verbose (include
ChangeLog, release date, obsoletes, advisory id, ...). Use the RHES or Fedora announcements as templates 4. a web-site like https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/rhel4es-errata.html should be created
and are you volunteering ??

As stated earlier I can offer a little bit help here. So let me repeat my questions: 1. is there already something like a database for the released updates / erratas? 2. are the announcements already indexed by an advisory id somewhere? 3. where and how can I integrate my scripts? 4. is the announcement posting process already automated?
Bye, Bernd.
