[dundee] Red Hat Introduces Full 10 year Support for RHEL 5 & RHEL 6

[Robert Ladyman]

Hmmm....think it might be time to change server distros. I'm getting fed up 
with OpenSuse retiring versions after a few months.


> Red Hat's life cycle for their distributions used to be 7 years, in 2010

> support until 31/03/2017 & 30/11/2010 respectively.
