Would be so much nicer if Red Hat also realised this [1] and made some of those beta isos public.
I was really looking forward to testing this but when my download
completes in
3 hours I might have forgotten about it completely.
I'm too used to 10MB/s local mirror speeds :/
Bringing down the barrier for people to test and report problems for RHEL Betas is something we have to discuss together with Red Hat. I discussed some of my wishes in an earlier blog post:
http://dag.wieers.com/blog/rhel-beta-test-sig
but the dialogue has not taken place yet.
I think this is one of those very profound win-win situations that we have to take advantage of.

As per the suggestion on Dag's blog i would be very happy to participate in any sort of beta for 5.3. I don't have a RHN subscription so my ability to get hold of the iso is limited but there are a couple of features in 5.3 that would be of use for my company's current projects - so much so that we may be delaying a proposed roll out for them
If there was to be any sort of CentOS based testing effort then i would like to throw my hat (and a dell 2950III) into the ring
best wishes
