The first alpha release for Scientific Linux 5.7 has been released.

This release has all the new updated packages from The Upstream Vendors
Update 7, as well as the security and fastbugs up to today.

It will install, and it appears to work, but no major testing has been
done.

We have network install images, and DVD images. No CD images are
available at this time.
