Correct me if I'm wrong but in order to make GPL happy you /only/ need to put up SRPMs for .centos packages right? If so, why not save yourself the trouble of a full tree? If people want SRPMs so badly they can go get them off the ftp server imho. I know that's what I do to rebuild PHP-mysql against Percona instead of wasting my time going some long convoluted route.

No, we just need to gather them all up from our build system and get
them there.  But we are currently trying to firm up 6.1 release.  The
only ones that are modified are the ones that have a .centos in the name
and the kernels ...

We will get them updated, but they reside on the same machines as the
rest of the build system and right now we think the bandwidth and
processing power for getting 6.1 out (ie, 6.1 built, troubleshoot,
rebuilt, to QA, etc.) is more important than trying to gather and push
SRPMS that are likely 95% or more unchanged.

When we get 6.1 released, all the SRPMS will also be released.

If there is a specific modified SRPM that you need before that, ask me
and I can put it somewhere.
