Mr. Stevens,
I feel I owe you, and the list membership, a public retraction and apology for this message. It was uncalled for, and went far beyond even my normal abrasive self. Please accept my sincere apologies for my tone and insinuations; I assure you it will not happen again.

Just take the missing build dependencies from Fedora 12/13. Red Hat has probably done the same.
"Just", "probably". Do these types of guessing games work out well for you in your professional life?
What are you waiting for @ CentOS team??? Until Red Hat released the missing build dependencies?
Do you wake up in the morning thinking of how you can be the most selfish, arrogant and entitled jerk possible or is it something that comes to you on the spur of the moment?
Then you can probably wait a long time.
It's a shame that releases can't be done in a fully selective manner; if so I would plead with and bribe, if necessary, the CentOS developers to release to everyone *except* you.
Here's a thought for you:
How about you no longer comment in a project DEVELOPMENT channel on those subjects you aren't technically proficient enough to understand? Even better, how about you just go away? Go use another distro or attempt to build your own or buy Redhat or whatever you choose to do; it's quite apparent you aren't happy here and you likely won't ever be so go try something else.
