Announcing CentOS 3 i386 Cluster Suite (CS) and Global File System (GFS)

CentOS csgfs is now available for CentOS-3 i386. This is a built from source found here:
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/3/en/RHCS/i386/SRPMS/
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/3/en/RHGFS/i386/SRPMS/
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/3AS/en/RHCS/SRPMS/
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/updates/enterprise/3AS/en/RHGFS/SRPMS/

CentOS-3 csgfs combines both the Cluster Suite 3 (CS) and the Global File System 6.0 (GFS) into a single directory (csgfs). This makes it convenient if you use both but you can still use just the CS or the GFS on their own as you require.

GARNOME 2.11.90 has been released:

This release incorporates all of the GNOME 2.11.90 (aka. Beta 1) Desktop and Developer Platform, including glib/gtk+ 2.7.x and cairo.

This release has also had a little more polish to ensure that the build system builds and links against things in your GARNOME directory, and not your system one, hopefully cutting down on errors relating to pesky '.la files' that some distributions insist on shipping in their -devel packages.
