    Thinking about it I should of used OpenBSD's model; when they do a 
point release every six months, the previous point release is
    still maintained, until another point release. . Now I  understand 
that redhat/centos uses a different model; where the newest point 
release replaces
    the previous point release.  Hope i got it:-)
