LS,
I noticed that the Security Errata pages haven't been updates since 2005/2/3 although they were read very well i think. Is there a chance that they will be posted again on a regular basis, for example when errata are available? That looks more professional i think. Also, the errata part of the main page is not utilised yet. I am convinced that in today's, security driven community of semi-professional or professional linux admins, such things are necessary. Even if the updates are available, without the proper marketing nobody will know that you put so much effort in reacting promptly to available updates that are repackaged and released for CentOS.
Great product by the way; wil definitely donate if we keep using CentOS instead of RHEL. Someone's gotta pay the bills :-)

Check out the Fedora Bounties page on the fedoraproject wiki.

Note the first item. I've been encouraging the results there to look like something CentOS can use, too.
