I barely remember that someone from centos team said sometime in the past that the update release in centos is almost automatic: uptream release a package and some scripts in centos dev pick them and compile them and then release them as centos updates, am I correct? if that is the case, could csgfs (or RHCS and RHGFS) could be included in such enviroment? if the procedure is just manual.... then I will accept, without questions, centos team priorities :-) ;-) thanks roger __________________________________________ RedHat Certified ( RHCE ) Cisco Certified ( CCNA & CCDA ) ____________________________________________________________________________________ Shape Yahoo! in your own image.
