Scientific Linux 6.10: The latest version of 6 was released

Pat Riehecky has announced the release of Scientific Linux 6.10, the final build of the distribution based on Red Hat. This version will be supported until November 2020.

Note that CentOS, and Scientific Linux distributions use Red Hat as their base. The latest release of the two forks follows closely the version of RHEL, which is currently on 7.5.

The distribution uses the Scientific Linux 6.10 repositories, OpenAFS, updated in 1.6.22.3.
Changes compared to Enterprise 6: httpd changed the default index.html to remove Red Hat branding, Plymouth removed the red colors, and in general all redhat logos disappeared. Background change, GDM and KDM changed the tradedress style, Anaconda added Scientific Linux. DVDs no longer ask for a network unless needed, redhat-rpm-config has changed to recognize Scientific Linux as Enterprise Linux.
