The Community and Subscription Editions are built from the same source train, but they do differ. The primary differences are going to be timings of features and bug fixes. New features may be released to the Community Edition first in order to stabilize them before they are released to Subscribers. Conversely, Subscribers will see more interim bug fixes, patches, etc., between Community Edition releases. Today, there is nothing that is held back from the Community Edition in terms of features, primarily because we want to make it the main stabilization vehicle for new functionality. Over time, you may see the feature sets diverge and reconverge over time as new features are stabilized, but they should track in roughly the same direction over large timescales. The best analogy here is the difference between Fedora and RHEL at Red Hat. They more-or-less have similar functionality and track to similar directions over time, but any individual release of Fedora is different than a release of RHEL. -- Dave
_____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Aubrey Wells Sent: Friday, September 14, 2007 1:32 PM To: vyatta-users@mailman.vyatta.com Subject: [Vyatta-users] Community vs Subscription Edition Is there a software difference between the Community and Subscription Editions of Vyatta? There's a size difference in the ISOs so there's *some* difference there, but in just using it I don't see anything different. Am I missing anything, or is it just the support that makes the difference? I apologize if this is documented somewhere, I couldn't find anything that mentioned any differences besides the support options. ------------------ Aubrey Wells Senior Engineer Shelton | Johns Technology Group A Vyatta Ready Partner www.sheltonjohns.com
