I would like to add them. I got them from different release announcement from RHEL. The timeline BTW is the RHEL timeline and not the CentOS timeline.

Much like the presentation is more about Enerprise Linux than it is about CentOS. >> BTW The RHEL6 release will not be before the second quarter of 2009, >> possibly after Fedora 11.
