Hello.
Now that Red Hat Linux appears to be a non-retail "product" with a much
shorter release cycle I am wondering about the following:
Is it Red Hat's plan to continue to produce security patches and other
errata for baseline Red Hat Linux releases for at least 12 months? (As
outlined for past releases on
http://www.redhat.com/apps/support/errata/)
First, the release cycle for Red Hat Linux hasn't really changed that much.
We've been doing a new release every six months for quite a few years. As
for the errata policy for Red Hat Linux, it's detailed here:

Short answer is that we will continue to provide security errata for 12
months at the least.
