This seems to me to be an unnecessarily agressive response
to what appeared to me a rational question from Les Mikesell.
Why not just say, "Sorry, Les, there's nothing you can do to help",
if that is in fact the situation.
Personally, I don't mind when CentOS-6 (or 6.1) comes out,
as I am perfectly happy with (and grateful for) CentOS-5.6,
and haven't seen anything in RHEL 6.0 that would help
my rather simple needs in running a small home server.
But I don't think the fact that a service is free
entitles its proponents to be rude to those using it.
