Scientific Linux 5.10 發布，重新編譯的Red Hat Enterprise Linux
Scientific Linux是重新編譯的Red Hat Enterprise Linux，由費米國家加速器實驗室和歐洲核研究組織（CERN）共同開發。盡管它旨在與Red Hat Enterprise Linux完全兼容，它也提供了上游產品中未收入的額外軟件包，這當中最值得一提的是各種文件系統，包括Cluster Suite和Global File System（GFS）、FUSE、OpenAFS、Squashfs、Unionfs，以及對Intel無線固件的無線網絡支持、MadWiFi和 NDISwrapper、Sun Java及Java Development Kit（JDK）、輕量級的IceWM窗口管理器、面向統計計算的R語言環境，以及Alpine郵件客戶端。
