OK. I don't have either, although I hesitated to sent this patch.

Well, last time I remember we decide to drop CentOS 6 after the release. But I
haven't done it. I also planned to create wiki pagge "Supported kernel and
libc", but haven't done it. Feel free to send a patch for any of these two.
But I'd prefer to do the replacement (7 instead of 6) instead of adding it,
because travis already run for quite long.

Kind regards,
