I am going to try and work this out - plan on doing a better teardown and work through the issues early Jan once this release has settled. We got a few things right, a couple of things went sideways. But I agree, we should aim to turn around a major release in 15 days or less. > The latest https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2016-2946.html which is a > critical update for firefox released on the 14th is still not released > for CentOS 7 after 2 days. > > It appears the core team have lost focus on what's important.

The overall ecosystem is important and key to the distro as well. For tangible issues, like the distro taking xx days - is something we can work on and try to fix, but lets not get carried away and declare blame based on a limited view on what is going on. regards, -- Karanbir Singh +44-207-0999389 | http://www.karan.org/ | twitter.com/kbsingh GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc
