Proposal: Bump CentOS reference distribution from 5 to 6
Hello;
Not that I care too much, but while CentOS 5 hasn't reached it EOL,
it doesn't make much sense to force ourselves to ship AOO there.
I think we should move to CentOS 6 which is likely to remain very popular
since it's the last version without systemd.
This would put up less pressure on infra for the buildbot and let us use
by default a newer toolchain.
Regards,
Pedro.

Do we have additional information on what some of these "breaks" might
be? I can't fault your logic about this being the footing for a major
version change, but if you could provide more detail for further
discussion, this would be helpful.

a) Centos 5 will get Maintenance Updates until March 31st, 2017
http://wiki.centos.org/About/Product
b) this change should be done in a major version change, as it breaks
compatibility in client code

simple make sure there are consensus among the PMC, then file a jira. You
will most likely get some comments on the jira, about getting what we have
up and spinning first.

That sound interesting. Can you outline the procedure to get one, or
point to the respective documentation?

To be fair, even has pretty much given up on AOO and buildbots, we can get
VMs if we want to and manage them ourself.
