CentOS 8 (2105)
We are pleased to announce the general availability of the latest version of CentOS Linux 8. Effectively immediately, this is the current release for CentOS Linux 8 and is tagged as 2105, derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.4 Source Code.
As always, read through the Release Notes at: http://wiki.centos.org/Manuals/ReleaseNotes/CentOS8.2105  - these notes contain important information about the release and details about some of the content inside the release from the CentOS QA team. These notes are updated constantly to include issues and incorporate feedback from users.

Hibernate ORM 5.5.2.Final
It seems there are popular answers on StackOverflow which suggest to disable loading of Database metadata during bootstrap of Hibernate ORM, so to have it boot faster.
In these forums an internal flag is being suggested which was meant to be used exclusively for tooling, and which we would not suggest you use for your regular application as some metadata we fetch from the database can have strong impact on internal strategies and workarounds, so making your favourite ORM smarter, more efficient, and sometimes even able to workaround bugs in specific DB versions. In some cases, disabling this metadata can also lead to tricky to diagnose bugs.
But some users reported very slow boot times, mostly in relation with very large databases, and to workaround this really prefer to skip this phase. This was not expected so we investigated more. We could remove some operations which are currently unnecessary, and automatically skip some others depending on actual need.
The end result is that it will now boot even faster, much faster if you had such issues, and without needing to set any flag or have to make tradeoffs with important safety features.

ISC Bind DNS 9.16.18
When preparing DNS responses, named could replace the letters W (uppercase) and w (lowercase) with \000. This has been fixed. [GL #2779]
The configuration-checking code failed to account for the inheritance rules of the key-directory option. As a side effect of this flaw, the code detecting key-directory conflicts for zones using KASP incorrectly reported unique key directories as being reused. This has been fixed. [GL #2778]
