Long time no news. Hope you are not holding your breath. :-? The only thing I can tell is that the developers are still "working on it".
Re: When will CentOS 5.5 be released?
Still no news to pass on. What I heard yesterday was that there are just a few packages that need to be finished. Then the new trees will be installable (with Anaconda) and we will also have the ISOs to play with ...
