There is certainly value in having GA / ISO matching images in most places as well, for those - adding the point qualifyer makes sense. But I think the default image we recommend people adopt should just be the CentOS-<Release>-<datestamp> one, also available as CentOS-<Release>-latest; So people getting onboard, get the best possible experience, and those who know what they are doing and still want a GA inline release, can get it - by jumping through a hoop or two. - KB -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc
