I might be stupid and ask an idiot or offensive question, but here it is:

"Why was tzdata-2007h [RHEA-2007:0928-05] only released for CentOS 2, when
upstream has released it for all the versions?"

The guys from X/OS have released it for 5.0 along with the other updates (on
Oct. 9).

Are the "enhancements"... "not important" as long as they're not "security
updates"?

True, the guys from SL have only released tzdata-2007h in "fastbugs" -- which
is something you should not use --, but I am asking in a single place: why?

Ummm. This is from my CentOS 5 /var/log/yum.log: Oct 06 14:30:09 Updated: tzdata.noarch 2007h-1.el5

Your post made me curious about its origin.
