Has there been any movement in the idea of adding support for the
current intel processors/chipsets to centos4?

How could we possibly know that now :P

RHEL5 is not even created yet

(nor is CentOS-5 beta {completely} or CentOS-5) ...

----------------------
It is one of our goals to make it be ... if possible ... upgradable.

If the upstream guys roll a package in beta back to an older version in
stable (it happens all the time) ... then it won't be AUTOMATICALLY
upgradeable, as you would need to manually handle that {as one example}.

Thanks,
