Yes, saw that link. There doesn't seem to be much centos5-specific information 
on the website, however, nor release info for plus. It seems like the trend 
is for there to be a centosplus kernel released sometime in the future, 
however I have an immediate need for firewire. Has anyone built or added 
firewire modules to centos5?
