I *know* there has been a lot going on, and congratulations on getting CentOS 8 out! But(!), I don't see any updates to CO 7.7.1908 in the "updates" directory on the mirrors I typically use. All the files date from Sept. 14th. Is something broken? -- *Matt Phelps* *Information Technology Specialist, Systems Administrator* (Computation Facility, Smithsonian Astrophysical

I know CentOS don't have inside info on what Redhat may or may not do in the future - plus Redhat don't usually announce publicly what their future plans are - but on the off-chance that someone on this list may know: Does anyone know what Redhat are likely to do with the next major release of Firefox on RHEL (and hence CentOS) ? The reason I ask, is that RHEL has been supplying the

Forgive me if this has been answered before and I've missed it. This https://access.redhat.com/solutions/2206511 says live kernel patches will be available via yum updates as of RHEL 7.7. Is this carried over to CentOS 7.7.1908? -- *Matt Phelps* *Information Technology Specialist, Systems Administrator* (Computation Facility, Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory) Center for

I learned from the Centos-devel email list that they aren't sending out email to centos-announce for updates to CentOS 8, but only updating an RSS feed. I think this is a bad idea since no one uses RSS anymore (ducks for cover). What do others here think of this? -- *Matt Phelps* *Information Technology Specialist, Systems Administrator* (Computation Facility, Smithsonian Astrophysical

This is not your usual "so when is CO 7.8.xxxx coming out?" posts. I'm just curious if the CentOS team is affected by our current world conditions, or is work-from-home modus operandi for the team?
