Hi all,
Could we revisit the missing updateinfo.xml in CentOS repos?
A previous post (http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2011-May/007480.html) mentioned it's difficult to get ahold of this data, but there have been developments since then.
The Scientific Linux project publishes this data without issue, thanks to work done by OpenSUSE (http://lists.baseurl.org/pipermail/yum/2008-April/021802.html) and Oracle (https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/entry/updates_to_errata_on_uln)
I'd love to get updateinfo.xml (or updateinfo.xml.gz) from CentOS rather than rely on another project, and I'm happy to contribute to making this happen.

For interested parties, the SL tools for updateinfo generation are published at: http://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/6x/addons/
We've also got a nifty xsl for translating the data into a webpage within there.
