Which, honestly, I dont imagine most people will want to do. If you stay with CentOS-5, you are fine for the normal 7 to 11 years support cycle. Which is how CentOS always worked as. yes, the situation is somewhat confusing, however, thats only for the people who want to break their distro or do their own branching. For everyone else, its business as usual. -- Karanbir Singh : http://www.karan.org/ : 2522219 at icq
