Greg,

That is my hope, that we can take all that is in the RHWAS and get that
into centosplus ... at least the non jboss app server parts of it that
are enterprise maintained SRPMS.

I do believe that these are going to eventually be released on the
public RH ftp server ... I am just trying to help the process along a
little :-P

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
