Sometimes it takes longer than we want. People have a choice. They can use CentOS or they can use something else. We do not need to say the same things over and over again. There is no "time limit" that we would go past where I would allow people who I do not know and trust to commit items into the CentOS tree. I have to use this in production and it has to be done correctly. It does not matter how long it takes if it is done right. Whitebox is not, nor was it ever, deployed on 29% of all Linux webserver servers worldwide. CentOS is ... right now ... deployed on 29% of web servers on the Internet that use Linux. That is more than RHEL and Ubuntu combined: http://w3techs.com/technologies/details/os-linux/all/all CentOS is also deployed on 8 of the top 500 supercomputers in the world (actually more than 8, because many that use CentOS instead just say Linux as a generic name): http://www.top500.org/stats/list/36/os Specifically Ranger: http://blogs.sun.com/jonathan/entry/lone_ranger CentOS is in use in hundreds of Universities all over the world. CentOS is a major player on the Amazon Cloud: http://news.idg.no/cw/art.cfm?id=BE5C04FE-1A64-6A71-CEBD76121F6F5495 We must be doing something right.
