We are interested in using CentOS 6.x with the MRG Realtime kernel. Are there any plans in providing a CentOS repository for the MRG packages? I was able to install the MRG realtime package from Scientific Linux distribution on top of CentOS 6.2 and run, but we would prefer to install from the CentOS repository.
Thanks for any info, -Joel

If you are happyo to help test the packages, I can certainly push them through the process, and make sure our QA cycles / auto testing stuff still works within that repo. But in order to make it to release, we really need someone to take ownership of the testing process and manually test everything.
Would you be able to help on that front ? Would anyone else ?

Sorry for the stupid question. How exactly can I help?
Roll the rpm and boot the kernel? What else?
P.S. I see a good use for the realtime kernel in conjunction with Asterisk open source telephony software switch.

Thats basically it. When the builds come through, do whatever / something to make sure that they are still fit for purpose.

Cool,
We also need a bit of help running our CentOS.org asterisk service :)

Let me try then. I'm inexperienced with both the MRG kernel and it's userspace software but I'd like to try.

I can roll out Asterisk with FreePBX frontend (requires MySQL database and dedicated Apache* - it would be preferrably a dedicated VPS for it)
*Dedicated Apache - because Asterisk, FreePBX and Apache run from the same user account.
FreePBX is a web/graphical frontend to Asterisk so after initial installation an inexperienced sysadmin can do all the remaining basic stuff like adding new accounts and with minimal effort reconfigure the system.
Public static IP address can save from many troubles if the system is to be used all over the world.
I can roll it on the VPS on my own dedicated server but it's in the middle of Russia so it's not the best choice latency wise.
ping ufaprom.ru Anything over 150ms is bad if you don't want the conversation to be skype'ish.
Locating the server outside of American jurisdiction (and it's stupid patent system) would allow the royalty-free use of the most advanced audio codecs (like G.729 - only 8kbit/s!).

Got no answer - still needed?

a little bit, the next few weeks should see builds land in a testing environment.
