Question on the vault and centos5

Post by CaViCcHi » 2017/10/26 21:39:48

Hi guys,

I assume the answer is "I suppose forever", but since I don't know I'd rather ask.

How long will the centos5 and all its version live on the vault?

judging from the older versions I assume forever, or until it's decided older versions are taking too much space... would I be correct?

Since CentOS 2.1 is up there, I presume forever too. It's only been over 8 years since that went EOL and it's still there.
The future appears to be RHEL or Debian. I think I'm going Debian.

CentOS 5 and 6 are deadest, do not use them.
