Default Redhat Enterprise 5 Release Date?

Hello,

I was looking for a release date for RedHat enterprise 5 when I came across wikipedia stating 28th feb.. ie in a couple of days. However, there is no mention of a release date on the RedHat website.... In the RedHat downloads they have got beta 2 released... Put simply, when do u guys rekon its coming out?

... Will the installation of ATI drivers be like fedora core 6 or 5? Because 6 I can handle but no older

Any info would be appreciated,
cheers.

It should be out in March.

So far in the 8.35 March drivers, I haven't seen the RHEL5 support. I asked AMD if they wanted me to add the RHEL5 support to the Fedora scripts, but since they officially support RHEL, they will be creating the scripts. I take it though the scripts won't be in the drivers till April or May. Though if you run the FC6 command it will probably work for RHEL5.

The latest version of Gentoo and Sabayon should have been out by now as well. It seems like a lot of distros are lagging a little behind.
