Please answer the original question (again) CentOS folks.
Where are we with getting the RHEL version of Chromium available for CentOS?
There should be no technical reason why we can't get a working, up to date, and therefore secure version of chromium running on CentOS 6.7!!
Happy to host it, is this something you are working on at the moment Matthew ?

Unfortunately, I have neither the time, nor expertise to partake in such a project.
Since Mr. Hughes had already gotten earlier versions of chromium to build under CentOS 6 (c.f. http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/chromium/6/), and he indicated it was merely a matter of getting RHEL to give permission for him to redistribute it more "formally" to the community, I was hoping progress had been made with that.
Have you, as the CentOS project lead ever asked RedHat if they can make their version of Chromium for CentOS 6 available for us? If not, can you please?
Since this seems to come up periodically, there is a demand for it out there.
