as for the server. Its package updating service up2date requires

distribution with many improvements, so it is possible that it is
preferrable.
If you register to redhat.com (free), you get one free server up2date entitlement. It is low priority entitlement though, so if the servers are stressed, the paying users will have higher priority.
Since we mirror all the updates anyway, it should be easy to run a local up2date server instead (and should be a good idea in any case, as it will serve many people).
