Since the appliance has been mentioned, something I have wondered... There have been several "appliance" versions now, and I always take a peek in a VM, but I notice the "shipping" version of Rivendell on them is always 2.5.5...and the only thing that is actually refreshed on the newer

Hello, I'm planning for a huge system upgrade this summer for our Rivendell installation. Our NFS and MySQL server runs Fedora 17, a fairly old version now, shipping all that is necessary for Rivendell to work properly. Well, my plan is to switch to Fedora 24, and from what I read on this list,

One thing to note about CentOS (and other Red Hat derived distributions) is that even though the kernel version appears to be quite dated, Red Hat spends considerable energy back-porting fixes, especially security-related fixes, into those older kernels. So they're not as "old" as they appear to

Hi, PPAs etc might not be a bad idea however I recommend holding off for a while, especially if you're planning to use Ubuntu 16.04. The MySQL changes weren't very Rivendell friendly, a bunch of patches have fixed the worst of these offenders however I guess these won't be in the general

Hi, I've been looking at Rivendell for some time now and have it successfully running on a client / server setup under Ubuntu using the very useful Tryphon repositories (thank you for these). It seems however that the Tryphon repositories are falling behind the current releases. It also
