Thanks for the information. I do know people who work with Red Hat folks on the kernel and nobody likes that back-porting work. Im not saying its not patched, im saying keeping that cruft patched is a terrible job that nobody likes doing. It will be a great relief getting back to where the current versions of things are. RH should not be going 5 years between major releases, bad form.
I get the 7.6 coming first - but curious when any alpha / very dirty test releases of 8 are planned.
