On a different note, I had heard rumors that the CentOS and Scientific Linux teams might work together. Any substance there (being that there are things Scientific Linux has that I like and use, but they seem to be pretty much duplicating your effort)? It would seem to be a good fit if the teams can work together and pool resources (particularly, the SL team has lots of bandwidth available). -- Lamar Owen Director of Information Technology Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute 1 PARI Drive Rosman, NC 28772 (828)862-5554 www.pari.edu
