Commercial Linux distributor Red Hat has moved the 6.1 release of its Enterprise Linux from beta to prime time. RHEL 6.1 is an update to the flagship Linux operating system from Red Hat, which came out in its 6.0 version back in November 2010. The 6.0 version was a major upgrade to the company's Linux OS, with nearly twice as many packages in the stack riding atop of the Linux 2.6.32 kernel, at 2,058 programs; that 6.0 version also had 1,821 feature requests from partners and customers and more than 3,900 enhancements to the Linux kernel contributed by Red Hat software engineers.
