Hi,

there's a new CentOS mailing list on the block: CentOS-mirror-announce

This list is for announcement from the CentOS team to public mirror admins, 
containing trivia like issues with our mirror network, new releases, 
changes in how we do mirroring and so on.

This list is thought to be for those busy mirror admins, who don't want to
follow the centos-mirror list due to too many postings. CentOS-mirror-announce
is a very low traffic mailing list.

CentOS-mirror-announce is *not* a discussion list.

Mirror admins will still be required to announce their newly created mirrors, 
but if you decide that the traffic gets too much for you, you can subscribe
to the mirror-announcement list.

The mirror list is subscribed to receive a daily digest of
CentOS-mirror-announce, so non-subscribers of the announcement list will not
miss any mails going to that list.

On behalf of the CentOS team,

Ralph Angenendt

Subject: [CentOS-announce] Release of the CentOS Directory Server
To: centos-announce at centos.org

The CentOS project is pleased to announce the first public release of
the CentOS Directory Server (CDS).

The CentOS Directory Server is a rebuild of the Red Hat Directory
server. It is LDAP server developed in the Fedora project and has a
long history. It started as the Netscape Directory Server but it got
purchased by Red Hat and they released it as free software.

CDS will be available in the CentOS Extras repository for CentOS 5 and
requires at least CentOS 5.3 because it requires the OpenJDK packages
that are new since 5.3. There are currently no plans to build CDS for
CentOS 4.

More information on how to install CDS and where to find documentation
is available at http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/DirectoryServerSetup.

Feedback about CDS can be given in all the regular channels available
(Forums, Mailing lists, IRC, etc.).

We hope that you will enjoy CDS and we would to thank all the people
that helped in testing to make this release possible.
