RHEL update releases are coming at about every 6-7 months. The 6.0 release was in November. 6.1 beta is out. You can do your math. Keep in mind that IPA in RHEL 6.1 will be in tech preview. This means that it will work but it is not in the state when we are confident that it meets all usual RHEL related quality expectations of our customers. So we will be stabilizing it in upcoming months so that we can declare full support in 6.2 later this year. >> >> Rgds, >> Siggi >> >> >> > -- Thank you, Dmitri Pal Sr. Engineering Manager IPA project, Red Hat Inc. ------------------------------- Looking to carve out IT costs? www.redhat.com/carveoutcosts/ _______________________________________________ Freeipa-users mailing list Freeipa-users@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/freeipa-users
