Maybe because the RHEL/CentOS 5.5 kernel got several security issues already? <http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2011-0017.html> For some of us CentOS users, this is critical. Especially when there has been no security updates for CentOS 5 since early January. It was the right decision to postpone CentOS 6 to get CentOS 5.6 out first. But it still have taken a lot longer than what we've been used to. And for people going to do fresh installs of CentOS, it would be most likely better to aim directly for CentOS 6 than CentOS 5.5/5.6. But the waiting without knowing what to expect when, that is a frustration amplifier, especially for those having project deadlines. kind regards, David Sommerseth
