But as a user, I would as soon see CentOS focus on being a great RHEL clone, and the core essentials of providing quick and reliable updates and long term support. If the CentOS team started spreading themselves too thin I, and I'm sure others, would start to worry. CentOS is about faith in ongoing support. Not about maintaining live CD's. Leave that to Knoppix, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc.

Have to agree Steve.
I like CentOS as it's excellent for a RHEL clone without the $ tag.
I think a Live distro if required is better suited under : http://caos.caosity.org/
I dont really see what difference it makes to anyone if we decide to make a live cd of CentOS ???
That sounds a little defensive. I hope you're not taking this personally. I don't think anyone is saying the CentOS development team isn't "allowed" to do a live cd. And the idea is perfectly fine for testing out hardware compatibility, etc. My personal opinion was just that I would hate for it to take any focus away from the distribution running smoothly, or the purpose the distribution. Nothing more.
