I am currently running centOS-3.1.
I have not received any package updates since Sept 1.
Is this in part due to creating new isos which would be named centOS-3.3.
How would I go about updating my system from centOS-3.1 to centOS-3.3, or would I even need to and just keep downloading updates like i do now.
My system is running very smoothly with no errors or issues, I was just wondering why there hasnt been any package updates available.
Would it be necessary to download the new isos and upgrade my system? Will the package updates be available still for centOS-3.1.
when they release the errata all you have to do is run "yum update"

DO NOT REPLACE $RELEASEVER WITH ANY NUMBERS
it's there so as you update from one release to the next you don't have to edit your yum.conf
Have a little patience. I'll be introducing the updates for the 3.1 tree this weekend.
I've been quite busy at work so cut us some slack.

Sorry, then, you're free to ignore the mail I just sent to centos-devel which crossed in transit with the above.
However, I'll note that distroverpkg=redhat-release which is the default in /etc/centos-yum.conf seems to be wrong. It should say distroverpkg=centos-release no?

no.
yum searches for any package that provides redhat-release
and guess what.
centos-release provides it. so does fedora-release and all the other $distro-release packages.
