Hi there,

Michael Wilke (miwi@) and I have polished and finished up the CentOS
6.7 ports work I had started last August. We're by now in a state
where I'm aware of only one remaining (albeit small) issue with the
patch, and where we feel confident to call for others testing it.

miwi published a Call for Testing (CFT) on his blog,
http://miwi.cc/2016/01/cftcentos-6-7-userland-update/, and you can
help us out by taking it for a spin with for example your favorite
games/linux- things (or anything else that uses Linux, really) and
reporting back whether it works as flawless as we hope, or whether
something crashed for weird reasons and whether we should investigate it
.

The instructions are in the patch above, but basically. what you have
to do is:

1. Download the patch.
2. Apply the patch.
3. Test things.
4. Report back.

Also with the variation that you'll be able to take the 64 bit
variants for a spin if you put this into make.conf before installing
any of the linux_base-c6 or linux-c6-* ports.

OVERRIDE_LINUX_BASE_PORT=c6_64
OVERRIDE_LINUX_NONBASE_PORTS=c6_64

So, that's about it. Please get back to us (emulation@) and tell us
your experience.

Best
- -Johannes
