from a promotional standpoint, i would avoid getting into that
centos is a volunteer effort, and i would *seriously* avoid using the
word "difficulty." all i was suggesting earlier is that there are a
number of ways to admit that centos has no *official* support channel,
and that it would be useful to, even in admitting that, word it in
such a way to not scare away potential adopters.
talk to someone with a marketing background. seriously. all you
need to do is admit that there's no support, but word it carefully so
that it doesn't seem like a big deal. just give people the warm
fuzzies. that's all they're looking for.
