# -*- coding: utf-8 -*- The CentOS distribution would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of a large number of talented people. It's only fair that we acknowledge the time and effort that they have put into the distribution. We are always in need of more volunteers. If you're interested in joining the CentOS Project, please join us on irc.freenode.net in #centos-devel or via the mailing list at http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/ ## Special Recognition ## One of the key reasons we got delayed on the CentOS-6 release was lack of suitable build resources, especially when we had to repeatedly build large chunks of code. Norwood S came forward and worked with me to setup a large build machine, then tune the build process and help improve the overall build, test and validate process we were using. This build machine he donated to the project was about 5 times more capable than the entire buildsystem we had. And he did this out of his own pocket, from his own time, and has since upgraded the machine as well. It's now a 128GB, 48 core machine, with 4 SSD's and 4 sata disks : but the key metric is that it can build from source, the entire CentOS-7 distro in under 22 hrs. Having this capability was key in our ability to build, test and deliver CentOS-7 as rapidly as we have been able to. We'd like to dedicate the CentOS-7 Release to Mr Norwood S, of Phoenix, AZ, USA for his continued support for the project.
