    Argh, you caught us! Of course, 7.2 is actually still 1.0, just with a higher version number so people with fat net connections can brag about having more current stuff.

  4. RedHat denies! by Bender+Unit+22 · · Score: 5, Funny

    RedHat now denies that they have released another beta of their distro - Roswell. They say: "In reality it was just another one of our disaster recovery backups that we place offsite every month. There is no evidence that points to that this should have been a distro".
    Meanwhile RedHat believers rush to FTP sites, trying to gather evidence that it indeed was a real distro that had entered these servers.

    Another coverup? Only time will tell.

  5. Official denial: There's no Roswell either by bero-rh · · Score: 3, Funny

    Roswell doesn't exist either...

    It's ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/beta/roswell

    See? It's roswell! ;)
