Which means, that RHEL6.0 should have just now come out today; the release called 6.0 was a teaser and a beta of the release called 6.1 which should have been called 6.0!
There is an old piece of wisdom in IT to avoid the public 'dot zero' products so that some-one else gets to be the advance guard scout (you know, the one who staggers back to base camp, festooned wth arrows in him)
even if a vendor names its initial product 2.1, or 3.0.3, it is still a 'dot zero' until eager and inadvertent public release (and perhaps unknowing) 'gamma testers' ('They CAN'T BE 'beta' testers -- we _did_ a beta') get fried a few times, a la Dr Bruce Banner and his Gamma ray accident
