[K12OSN] K12LTSP 5.1EL & 8, official Fedora packages

[Eric Harrison]

Thank you all for not giving me too hard of a time for being so quiet 
for so long.

Behind the scenes, a lot has been goin' on.

First, and foremost, you can expect beta builds of K12LTSP 5.1EL and 8.0 
  in the near future. These are not going to be anything fancy, just 
straight updates based on the soon-to-be/just released CentOS 5.1 & 
Fedora 8. Both of these will continue to use the tried & true LTSP 4.2.

But that's pretty boring. The real fun stuff is what has been cookin' in 
the background.

The "next generation" of K12LTSP is quickly coming together nicely. I 
hope that beta-quality packages will be available for Fedora 8 by the 
end of the year (under promise, over deliver).

I'd write about the details, but Warren has done a great job on his 
blog, so I'll take the lazy route and just link to him ;-)

And for various other goodies about last week's LTSP developer work, 
take a look at Scott Balneaves' blog:
