Versie 9.4 van Rocky Linux is uitgekomen. De Linux-distributie is ontstaan als afsplitsing van CentOS, de community edition van Red Hat Enterprise Linux, nadat Red Hat had aangegeven er niet meer verder mee te willen. Rocky Linux is nog steeds gebaseerd op RHEL en heeft ook een migratietool die overstappen makkelijk maakt. De releasenotes voor deze uitgave kunnen hieronder worden gevonden.

Wat ik me afvraag, ter lering voor mij (note: ik werk bij redhat), wat zijn de overwegingen van tweakers om Rocky te kiezen als je ook 15x RHEL kan krijgen via de gratis developer subscription :strip_icc():strip_exif()/u/225583/crop5db1b1fd1ec4a_cropped.jpeg?f=community){kind=small}
