Linux 2765 Published by

The first release candidate of Scientific Linux 6.1 is available



Everything is looking very stable.
We will let Release Candidate 1 (RC1) sit for a week and a half so
people can find any last minute bugs. If everything goes well we expect
RC2 on July 26, with the final release later that week.
