I'm retiring my last two production 7.3 boxes in just under 3 weeks. Incidentally, those are the last production RH hosts I maintain. My opinion only, of course, but my point of view was that was the last production-ready kit to come from RH without a price tag. Psyche, as groovy as the name was, was a fiasco. The whole psyche experience soured me on 9 as far as deployment was concerned. And after that it was either write a check or deal with excessively short EOL cycles. Not knocking Fedora here, so don't anybody knot their knickers; I still use it as my personal desktop of choice. But the rest of the RH model lost me as a "deploying customer". Although I have to admit that I've never driven CentOS for a paycheck, and probably should amend that. Sorry for babbling, there. RH 7.3 was nice, I'm sorry to let it go.
