David and a couple of others e-mailed me a month ago, when RedHat 7.0 would
be available.
Well RedHat 7.0 is offically out from today. The RH 7.0 binaries of OpenDX
available from
www.opendx.org should work with it. I had been using it on RH 7.0
confidential copy since
more then a month.

well ... looks as though the leaks were right. Red Hat 7.0 was
released, and is appearing on the public mirrors.
There is an announcement at:
http://www.redhat.com/products/software/linux/rhl7_standard.html
Look for integrated Open SSL support, making OpenSSH trivial to
build [We pushed for default inclusion of the needed devel libraries
in the default install tool-chain needed to rebuild, and keep
up with new SRPMS early in the beta process]. OpenSSH is there too.
Kernel 2.4.x is present in the optional add-ons for those who like
to live on the wilder side, as is KDE in the 2. series.
X-4.0.x is present, simplifying X installs somewhat
USB support is asserted to -simply work- Dunno if it is true, as I
haven't tested that part.
MySQL has been GPL'd and is back, along with PHP-4, and Zope. GD at
ver. 1.8, switching to .png and .jpg support, over .gif. sendmail
at 8.11
The Up2Date tool and subscription service has been revised.
Formally updated disks are being added to their product line, rather
than slip-streaming updates in.
--------------
Newly present in the base install (rather than on PowerTools):
Amanda, cdrecord, netcat

A copy is mirroring in at:
ftp://ftp.suncoastlug.org/pub/redhat/redhat70/
for SRPMS and i386 -- Updates will also appear as issued.
