OpenFiler2 based on CentOS4/lvm2 is due out before the end of this month.

We are going to still support the CentOS3/Openfiler 1 series for a while, SnapShots being an important factor.

because this got asked offlist, right away..... SnapShots on Lvm2 are still kinda broken - the results you achieve are never predicatable.

During LinuxWorld London, I spoke to agk about this issue - his response was 'Snapshots are high on the agenda for lvm2, will work soon'.

PS: OpenFiler is my day job

Actually, its not entirely. I work for Xinit Systems, and they in turn sponsor the Openfiler project. Offshoot being that I get to spend daytime office hours working on OpenFiler.
