I am not quite sure that drbd-8 is totally ready yet for prime time.
Not that I don't trust them (I use drbd in production and I love it),
but I want to wait for an 8.0.1 or 8.0.2 level before I move the
enterprise CentOS RPMS to that version.

I would be open to producing some 8.0.0 rpms for testing ... though that
will probably need to wait until after CentOS 5 Beta is released.

Thanks,
