the bottom line for Oracle Support is whatever Oracle says they 
support.  last I looked, EL6 wasn't on that list (nor is ANY version of 
CentOS)

this doesn't mean it won't work, but what it does mean is that if 
something goes sideways on you, oracle won't help you one bit, and since 
you pay a substantial chunk of money annually for that precious support, 
its insane NOT to use a supported platform.
