Now that it appears that some folks are able to get the 5.4 downloads (and a GREAT BIG THANK YOU to all the centos team members who make this possible!) I'm wondering when the updates will begin flowing so that those of us running 5.3 can do "yum upgrade" and enjoy all the benefits too?
Thanks in advance!

If you're seriously in a big hurry, get the DVD iso via bittorrent, loop-mount the iso someplace and do the update from local media. Seems like there's a wiki page with instructions.
Shh... you are going to upset the gods of syncing :)
mount -o loop -t iso9660 isofile /mount-point
Ex. mkdir /tmp/centos54 mount -o loop -t iso9660 isofile /tmp/centos54

You must be patient! Many of the mirrors (including the one that I maintain) are still syncing 5.4 due to issues that arose. Wouldn't you prefer to pull your packages from a mirror that won't give you 404s? :D
