The complexity of this stuff is beyond what you are able to parse.
Could you please elaborate?
I don't mean here in reply to this posting. I mean it long-term, in the bug tracker and also in a publicly accessible git repo of patches and quirks. As things are now, the dev team has a huge amount of knowledge on how CentOS is made, but very little of it trickles outside the core team.
So, what I'm saying essentially is this: would you care to make the de-branding and building process fully open, so that others can copy it, learn from it, improve upon it, and also contribute back? Would you care to share your scripts and other wheels, so others won't have to re-invent them?
Mind you, I'm not asking you to start writing documentation or do anything that would take away resources from actually producing CentOS. What I'm asking is just that you open up the work you're doing anyway, no extra cost involved.
Johnny Hughes has already provided the info and the scripts . See http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2011-February/006735.html and later messages
