Isn't that illogical ?
If there is:-
CentOS-7.0-1406-x86_64-DVD.iso
then the next one should logically be named:-
CentOS-7-1503-x86_64-DVD.iso
assuming sub-version numbers have been abolished by Centos.
Jumbled confusion, like CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1503.iso, is messy and
illogical.
What is preventing Centos adopting a simple, neat, tidy, sensible and
logical approach ? For example:
{major version}-{build number}-{architecture}-{media}.iso ?
That is method I would use.
Thank you.
