OK all .. RHEL 7.9 source code updated today.
I am currently working to start the build of CentOS 7 based on that [CentOS 7 (2009) ].
Currently, we need to bootstrap and then build llvm-toolset-9.0 and rust-toolset-1.41 as some of the released packages need those toolsets. I also need to check devtoolset-7 and devtoolset-8 and see if we need any updates to pacakges there before we start the main build .. and I need to see of any of the packages need devtoolset-9.
Once we have all those prerequisites completed, I can start the main builds.
The goal, as usual, is to get the CR repo populated in 7 to 10 days: https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR
And the final release completed in less than 40 days.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes

In practice your message was the first announcement of final RH EL 7.9 being released. Even on customer portal and other Red Hat resource pages it was not listed... ;-)
Thanks, Gianluca
