Description
CentOS Linux is a community-driven distribution that is built from resources made available to the public through Red Hat or CentOS repositories for Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL). Its primary goal is to maintain functional compatibility with RHEL, while the CentOS Project focuses on modifying packages to eliminate any upstream vendor branding and visual elements. CentOS Linux is available at no cost and can be freely redistributed. Each version of CentOS is supported until the corresponding RHEL version reaches the end of its general support lifecycle. New versions of CentOS are released following the rebuilding of new RHEL versions, typically occurring every 6-12 months for minor updates and spanning several years for major releases. The duration of the rebuild process can range from a few weeks for minor updates to several months for significant version changes. This approach ensures that users benefit from a secure, dependable, and easily maintainable Linux environment that remains predictable and reproducible over time, fostering a strong community around its use.

Following an extensive development process that included numerous beta versions and release candidates to ensure perfection, we are excited to introduce the new stable release. This version features comprehensive updates across the system, incorporating the latest development tools, as well as updated applications, window managers, desktop environments, and utilities. The Linux kernel has been upgraded to version 4.4.14, which is part of the long-term support 4.4.x kernel series, ensuring ongoing maintenance and security. We have meticulously curated a selection of modern components and enhanced them to create a seamless user experience.
