| Description: | Figuring out what Red Hat is up to with each release can be a minor challenge: in past releases they've pushed the envelope with glibc and gcc while remaining conservative in other areas. Red Hat 7.1 is no different: with some up-to-the-minute additions and some surprising displays of conservatism, such as the exclusion of ReiserFS at install-time; and some pleasant new features, such as the inclusion of firewalling out of the box, Red Hat 7.1 is a curious blend.
