Hi,
Its been a while since I did the last update post - so this one is going to be a bit longer.
Distro ---------- * Updates for CentOS Linux 5/6/7 : All updates from upstream are released into the CentOS mirror network.
* Rolling ISO media for CentOS-7 for May 2015 was released : http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-June/021160.html ; this is media rebuilt with the last installer, but includes all updates released upto the 28th of May.
- Vagrant box for CentOS Linux 7 is now released : http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-June/021162.html ; we will try and keep these updated on a monthly cycle. CentOS 5 and 6 images are coming soon.
- There has been lots of progress on the CentOS Linux ARM efforts, on both the v7 and the aarch64 side of things. The aarch64 ( arm 64bit platform ) is currently in beta mode ( http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/arm-dev/2015-May/000206.html ), and has been used in vendor demos ( http://www.eweek.com/servers/cavium-system-makers-unveil-arm-based-servers-b... ).
- ARMv7 efforts are also moving along nicely, this effort is being run entirely community centric. You can follow progress on the arm-dev list at http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/arm-dev; We have a baseline tree ready, including images for the raspberry pi2 and the cubietruck. Its an ongoing effort with plenty of opportunity to contribute and get involved.
- The Cloud SIG announced release for OpenStack Kilo on CentOS Linux 7 and OpenStack Juno on CentOS Linux 6 ( http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2015-May/013388.html ). Using the following three steps, any minimal base CentOS Linux 7/x86_64 install can run a complete demo cloud :
$ sudo yum install centos-release-openstack-kilo yum-utils $ sudo yum install openstack-packstack $ packstack --allinone
News & Others ---------- - The CentOS project is taking part in the Google Summer of Code effort through 2015. You can find details on the projects, the people working on them, the mentors in the excellent summary posted by Karsten at http://seven.centos.org/2015/06/centos-and-gsoc-2015-suddenly-come-seven-on-...
- We have a Calendar for IRC meetings ( and maybe we can add all CentOS related events there.. ) http://seven.centos.org/2015/06/centos-irc-meeting-calendar-now-available/ thanks to Brian for getting this done.
- Some of us are going to be Red Hat Summit in a couple of weeks time, if you are attending do stop by and say hi. We should have some tshirts and stickers to hand out, and will also be doing demos of CentOS-7/i686 as well as CentOS-7 on ARMv7 and aarch64.
---------- Tip: Did you know that we run a remote ipxe install service that allows you to install any CentOS version / release very easily ? check it out at http://boot.centos.org/ and read the info page at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/RemoteiPXE

<snip> I'd like to let you know that the updates are appreciated. I think it gives all of us on this list, and not others, a feel for what's happening.

Fantastic! I shall keep them coming, and try and settle onto a 10 - 12'ish day cycle.

Thanks again. Hopefully, there'll be less outrage here when we're not blindsided, and maybe some will even put in comments, with the early warning, to help prevent problems.
mark, prefers problem resolution to fire fighting

in reading last line at bottom, for getting help, does one really have to get friendly and personal with a "tree"? ;-)
