Yes, I will try and get to that either today or early in the day tomorrow.

I am keen on looking at using a centos-release with a link over from 
redhat-release, but lets consider / look at the implications and 
fallouts before deciding on something for sure. There should not be any 
reason to patch redhat-lsb; whatever we do should not, ideally, have any 
impact on code and expectations from other apps ( specially since there 
might be implications to third party apps that we cant / dont want to 
have a feedback loop into )

What do you see as needing patched into redhat_lsb, that would fallout 
from the to-symlink or not-to-symlink decision ?
