Release for CentOS Linux 7 Rolling media Feb 2015 (Karanbir Singh) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Message: 1 Date: Thu, 05 Mar 2015 12:36:14 +0000 From: Karanbir Singh <kbsingh at centos.org> To: CentOS Announcements List <centos-announce at centos.org> Subject: [CentOS-announce] Release for CentOS Linux 7 Rolling media Feb 2015 Message-ID: <54F84DBE.7000906 at centos.org> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am pleased to announce general availability of the Feb 2015 snapshot for CentOS Linux. Todays release includes CentOS Linux 7 iso based install media, Generic Cloud images, Atomic Host and Docker containers. CentOS Linux rolling builds are point in time snapshot media rebuild from original release time, to include all updates pushed to mirror.centos.org's repositories. This includes all security, bugfix, enhancement and general updates for CentOS Linux. Machines installed from this media will have all these updates pre-included and will look no different when compared with machines installed with older media that have been yum updated to the same point in time. All rpm/yum repos remain on mirror.centos.org with no changes in either layout or content. Files marked as 20150228_01 indicate that it includes all content released to mirror.centos.org upto ( and including ) the 28th of Feb 2015. Since there is a need to test these images, the release will always lag few days behind the datestamp ( and therefore content included ) in the release. My aim is to automate as much of this as possible going forward to reduce this time lag as much as possible, however we might not be able to remove the lag completely. Other content formats like containers and vendor specific images will aim to start with the same cycle as the main CentOS Linux media, but might move to a more frequent build and release cycle if needed. Special Interest Groups ( http://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup) wanting to do media and installer releases should also consider using the rolling timelines to sync with. - ----------- CentOS Linux distro installer media: File: CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-20150228_01.iso Sha256sum: 8e1195b922def89f4d5846726f3bb1eaecd8bbfcb7a6e415d54a1ed6260ac21d File: CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything-20150228_01.iso Sha256sum: 09f76128a9d613ebc2ec0c6ad1313e78f0ce349dc669b2714e4e9f694c5c569b File: CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-20150228_01.iso Sha256sum: c4da447eba9806d50d8a6369f44d5f847f0da4fd49144e5900227e0ca66ae3b2 Symlinks are provided that will always map to the latest released builds, as follows ( including their current mapping ) http://buildlogs.centos.org/rolling/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD.iso - -> CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-20150228_01.iso http://buildlogs.centos.org/rolling/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything.iso - -> CentOS-7-x86_64-Everything-20150228_01.iso http://buildlogs.centos.org/rolling/7/isos/x86_64/CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal.iso - -> CentOS-7-x86_64-Minimal-20150228_01.iso These symlinks are updated to point at the latest tested and released media and make for a good target in automation that requires CentOS Linux media. - ---------- For more information and comments please join us on the centos-devel mailing list ( http://lists.centos.org/ ) Enjoy! - -- Karanbir Singh, Project Lead, The CentOS Project -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJU+E2+AAoJEI3Oi2Mx7xbthVgH/21II7Wu00wLUJzU5uZn7xl6 olnu3CtTC0Nq7fm7MiP59PoaLTk1GKe4SaQFJQIuNJYdooH06XvarwiIo34SgOWq MV/7KFRhWER0ZLpvJQIa0+r5WjL7OXuOHZ18FomC3/PqIZZaVwhXSXtFnCGgnirD O6C3Ku6ErlTh4tF5gImw8s0FUkTBOOjfl5lL2jcqoSyXJkggs7CqBoH9LzfK/ddw HeLqCenosk72bIXPMhZsM2JiGK8dujjBftcJ3GtvXOvXoWs3+Rl8fTsaSlHUa37/ brPfSDDaVWcp3sVMPmw7XCgT1s3RSxVKVZM1lHvvwZFNMnEj67mCeQN/XMlMdQU= =5Dnk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------ _______________________________________________ CentOS-announce mailing list CentOS-announce at centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-announce End of CentOS-announce Digest, Vol 121, Issue 2 ***********************************************
