CentOS 6.1 release??

[dfrg_msc]

Something not relative with the subject...
http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOSMinimalCD6.0
ISO checksums is missing from this wiki page, while Minimal CDs have been released about a week ago.

You are correct that it is OT - might have fit better in "WebSite Bugs, Issues, Problems." or under its own Topic; however, thanks for the report. Fixed in English and others should follow.

Any update on 6.1? It all seems to have gone quiet at the usual places Twitter, devel mailing list, QA Website or here.

Last I heard it seemed to be about to go to QA but that was a while back.

Thanks

5.7 CR packages are available now, so I guess QA team is working on 5.7 these days, and then on 6.1 after 5.7 release.

The QA team is currently waiting for developers to decide on the direction to pursue - namely determining the relative priorities of 6.0 CR, 6.1, and 5.7.

I'm pretty sure I misunderstand.

4 weeks ago, I heard: "The last of the 6.1 RPMS is now compiling."

So for 4 weeks, once the development team's effort was finished, the QA team has waited and waited and waited for a go-ahead signal?

I don't think this could be true. What information have I missed?

Well, the QA team was working on CentOS 6.0 LiveCD/DVD and Minimal CD during the second half of July, and on CentOS 5.6 CR packages during the first half of August. They were not just waiting.

[dfrg_msc]

And my questions:
1. Will there be Light Weight Server CDs for CentOS 6.0?
2. What's the decision made by the developers, 6.1, 5.7 or 6.0 CR?

Agreed.

Don't believe everything you "hear". ;-)

The only things the QA team has waited for are packages to test. Testing was done on 5.6 [cr] updates and the release was announced. When the next set of packages and/or ISOs are made available to QA they will be tested.

My guess - no. Probably for 6.1.

Still pending, but with 5.6 [cr] out there I suspect 6.x will get priority.
