Re: [CentOS] CentOS 8 will be released soon?
I think releasing 7.7 is much important. since 8.1 is coming soon it seems meaningless to release 8.0. we know RHEL X.0 is basically a beta version which just encourage people to try it. even RedHat support 8.0 only for a very short period of time. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

As someone who is not a native English speaker, I know how this happens. "doubt" and "suspect" can be translated into the same word (certainly in Japanese). As a result, these two words are often used incorrectly. Akemi ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
