oh please -- You've been around software, computers, and FOSS
long enough to know the game --
Publish a schedule and take a day longer. Not soon enough,
why are they so slow, and if a miss, the sky is falling, in
commercial world angry stockholder suits, and all the
externalities; don't publish a schedule and say: when it is
ready, or enforce no un-planned leaks like Apple or RHT:
just as much carping, but no miss.
People can project their expectations all they wish; I won't
feed those

The sub-domain under discussion and mentioned by hughesjr and
others is a sub-doamin of centos.org. I believe the group has
sketched it out already. Website, front page, top right:
The CentOS project is now in control of the CentOS.org
... domain ...
but as I said before, people do not read, or will not believe
what we write. More details appear when we release more
details
Who is the fool here?
