Now that it appears that some folks are able to get the 5.4 downloads
(and a GREAT BIG THANK YOU to all the centos team members who make this
possible!) I'm wondering when the updates will begin flowing so that those
of us running 5.3 can do "yum upgrade" and enjoy all the benefits too?
Thanks in advance!
