Scientific Linux, a 14-year-old operating system based on Red Hat
Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and which was maintained by some
significant members of the scientific community such as The Fermi
National Accelerator Laboratory and CERN, is being discontinued.
From a report:

While current versions (6 and 7) will continue to be supported,
future development has permanently ended, with the organizations
instead turning to CentOS -- another distro based on RHEL.
"Scientific Linux is driven by Fermilab's scientific mission and
focused on the changing needs of experimental facilities.
Fermilab is looking ahead to DUNE and other future international
collaborations. One part of this is unifying our computing
platform with collaborating labs and institutions," said James
Amundson, Head of Scientific Computing Division, Fermi National
Accelerator Laboratory.
