And/or "The Webmaster [of the apigee.com website] has not gotten around to
changing the website, since he/she has been out of the office because of
Christmas." Given the nature of CentOS / RHEL point updates, unless something
really odd happens, support for point updates is pretty much a no-brainer.  Eg 
if 7.5 is supported, so is 7.6.
