I'm running CentOS 5 beta 2 on a test box.  You can find the links to 
the current beta ISOs, release notes, etc. on the CentOS main web page 
(the i386 and x86_54 ISOs are under 
http://beta.centos.org/centos/4.92/isos/). 

The estimate was for CentOS to trail RHEL 5 by about two weeks.  This 
implies that we should see a production release of CentOS fairly soon 
but feel free to give the beta a whirl if you want.  I'm currently 
running FC6 and CentOS 4.4 on different boxes for hardware support so 
I'm trying to get a jump on moving to only running CentOS 5 and not 
having to chase the latest Fedora version.

Cheers,
Dave
