CentOS7 updates from RHEL7 slowing down!


I have noticed over the past several months, the time it takes for RHEL7 updates to be taken into CentOS7 is getting longer and longer. It used to be days, now its weeks. Any company using CentOS can not wait many weeks for security patches. Red Hat acquired CentOS a few years back, and the CentOS leaders are now employees of Red Hat. I hope this is not a financial motive to discourage commercial use of CentOS, by delaying the updates. What is going on here?

I think this is good news.
They are just focusing on testing release of 7.5.
Read the CentOS response to my question here:

Now I feel bad for making any suggestion on impropriety.
