fyi - Timed with the release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Red Hat removed sources (SRPMs) from the standard download location (ftp.redhat.com). Why the change? Red Hat has made no statement. And requests from the public to release sources as usual have received no response.

More background and information are available in the following locations:

* CentOS Development Mailing List. See the thread on "SRPMs for RHEL 7" at the centos-devel mailing list archives.

* Red Hat Bugzilla Database. See bug 1109401.

There is also a google group for public discussion. The group name is "rhel7-sources". Feel free to join if you are interested in this topic.
