    Two OpenWrt service releases
    The OpenWrt project has released two updates:
    18.06.9 and
    19.07.5.
    Both contain a number of important fixes, including a few with CVE numbers
    attached. Also notable is that 18.06.9 is the last update for 18.06; users
    will need up upgrade to 19.07 for continued support.

    [$] Changing CentOS in mid-stream
    For years, the CentOS distribution has
    been a reliable resource for anybody wanting to deploy systems with a
    stable, maintained Linux base that "just works". At one point, it was reported
    to be the platform on which 30% of all web servers were run. CentOS has
    had its ups and downs over the years; for many, the December 8 announcement
    that CentOS will be "shifting focus" will qualify as the final
    "down". Regardless of whether this change turns out to be a good thing, it
    certainly marks the end of an era that began in 2004.
