The end of Scientific Linux
Fermilab has maintained Scientific Linux, a derivative of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux, for many years. That era is coming to an end, though:
"Toward that end, we will deploy CentOS 8 in our scientific computing
environments rather than develop Scientific Linux 8. We will collaborate
with CERN and other labs to help make CentOS an even better platform for
high-energy physics computing." Maintenance of the SL6 and SL7
distributions will continue as scheduled.
