Please file bugs -- these are easy to address, but might lost 
in a mailing list context.  The SRPMs are usually also 
available at the upstream prime site unless they were related 
to an update and were replaced by later candidates.

When there were CentOS specific patches needed (TM artwork 
replacement, or functional ones), we are of course the prime 
site.

Perhaps we should add a README in our SRPM archives at each 
directory point to the prime location ... hmmm.
