This is a SIG that requires community participation .. so far, George Dunlap and I are really the only people contributing. This is volunteer work for both of us. We could stand some more volunteers. In any event, the updates we release come from here: https://xenbits.xen.org/xsa/ When they release an XSA, we incorporate it and do a new release. Support for older releases will be done (currently by only me .. volunteers welcome) based on this schedule: https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Xen_Project_Release_Features So, we will support 4.4 on CentOS-6 until 'March 2017' and 4.6 on CentOS-6 and CentOS-7 until 'Oct 2018 '. When the xen project stops supporting a version, we will also stop supporting it. > On 02/17/2017 09:51 AM, Johnny Hughes wrote: >> These updates have now been pushed to mirror.centos.org and you can get >> them from the main repos. >> >> On 02/15/2017 08:27 AM, Johnny Hughes wrote: >>> There are xen rpms in the testing repos for XSA 207 and 208 in the >>> testing repos (xen-4.4.4-18.el6, xen-4.6.3-7.el6, xen-4.6.3-7.el7). >>> >>> You can enable the applicable centos-virt-xen-testing repo in your >>> /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Xen.repo file. >>> >>> Please report positive and negative tests to this list so we can promote >>> the updates to the main repos. >>> >>> Thanks, >>> Johnny Hughes
