Lejeczek, Iosif etc,
I really dunno, what you guys wanna hear?

you come and say you switch/switched to centos - and you ask for what? for blessing? :D well ... i bless you :D

Now, joking aside, Fermilab said clearly they go with SL7x and they do.
And while you will have supp for sl/rhel 6x roughly to 2020, that makes sl/rhel 7x to roughly 2025? this is enough for me

without detail, why i prefer sl is
-small friendly community, incl. friendly devs
-updates
-i feel more independent to rh as far as possible, considering it is rhel clone

Again, what you trying to say? That we have here at list some ppl (me?) stuck on SL and saw no other distros? haha :D i go with linux since 1997..

I think we see two groups of people here, taking part in this "exciting"
debate.

One is, people who genuinely try to learn a bit about more concrete
plans Fermilab have(or don't have) for the future of Scientificlinux -
and they do it here on the list because they can sroogle all over the
Net and they won't find any solid, ideally rendered by the very source
itself statement.

The second group is people who don't give a toss, a good chance is it's
because they have not seen much beside Scientificlinux and they really
believe it's very unique indeed. You can see scientist type of mentality
here -- I have got my one little or big app, it runs great! and I'm
happy with it and I can say I do it all on by myself cause I do not have
to deal with any commercial third entities (which is very important for
a scientist) -- very simplistic and egotistic attitude, but works. And a
good chance is this bunch don't have to even ask about bigger picture.
Some individuals from this group can even be rude and hostile towards
others, even if only asked about sharing a thought or two on the issue.

Well, like esteemed fellows already said - we're free to do as we wish,
fortunately, only unfortunate is that we cannot always make fully
informed decisions. I guess that's science, that's life. Heh. :)
b.w.

Hi there,

anyone who wants to go with centos, is free to do so, right? So just
go and do it and don't 'fuss' about it on SL mail list.

Thanks for the nice advice.

Would you have another one too? On which list should current SL users
ask/discuss about the short/long term plans regarding SL? And/or of
the problems related with a migration from/to SL?

We all should be grateful for continuing support of Fermilab for SL
builds.

That's something we most probably all on this list agree with
unconditionally.

Thank you,

Iosif Fettich
