CentOS does not depend on one person (Morris could change employer,
going to conferences etc).

Also, is there a way to provided binary rpms fromn the sources that
redhat release? I am willing to

They are binary compatible.

collaborate doing that in the more possible timely manner. Thnaks and
good luck!

Sure! But this list is hosted by the White Box project so I don't want to
say anything that might inadvertantly start a flame war between the two. I
would be happy to discuss my opinions of this in private email, though.

Yes, but I think they are more behind the scenes.

Sure. That's where all the clones start from.
