how much and where is this causing a problem ?

We are trying to message around the idea that effectively there is no
distro 7.0 or 7.1 etc, they are just various points in time on the
CentOS-7 distro. We went through quite a few iterations around naming
and numbering and adding a datestmp to the release number was the only
really 'acceptable' setup. The 1406 then indicates age of the .0 base.

sounds good.

We will have regular image builds up soon, would it be possible for you
to automate a new-image-get and deploy, say every two weeks perhaps ?
