Closing the door on this post ...

SoftwareCollections.org is the home for many software collections for
Fedora, RHEL, and CentOS.  There are many SCLs there (including the RHEL
1.1 beta packages).  I would recommend that people use these SCLs on CentOS.

It seems that the packages there are currently not signed .. for people
who don't want to use them because of that, we will produce the RHEL 1.1
SCL packages when they release.
