The CentOS 7 ABI baseline isn't from 2016 - it's from 2014, since the package versions are fixed by the corresponding RHEL release: https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata#Life_Cycle_Dates Technically, the ABI compatibility baseline dates are even earlier than that, since they're already set at least by the public RHEL X beta, which is several months before the final release (Dec 2013 in the case of the RHEL 7 beta) While the decision to use `manylinux3` makes the `linux2014` vs `linux2016` discussion moot, that distinction is still important in terms of whether or not Ubuntu 14.04 is likely meet the manylinux3 ABI detection checks (I actually expect it will, although only testing will tell us for sure).
