Scientific Linux 6.6 Released As RHEL 6.6 Spin

For those currently bound to the RHEL6 series rather than the newer RHEL7 series and use Scientific Linux to avoid the associated Red Hat costs, Scientific Linux 6.6 is now available.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 was released last month with performance improvements and enhancements to system administration and virtualization in particular. Nearly one month later, Scientific Linux 6.6 is out as its take on RHEL6.6

The Scientific Linux 6.6 release bumps OpenAFS to version 1.6.10 and it also features a new xorg-x11-server ABI due to a security error. The Scientific Linux 6.6 release is available for i386 and x86_64 architectures in a DVD ISO as well as a network boot image.
