What is the reason for those boxes to be on Fedora instead of RHEL? If it's because FC6 had things not in RHEL4 maybe we can make a switch to RHEL5 at some point. If the reason is we want the flexibility of moving to the latest code along with Fedora instead of waiting for RHEL to upgrade/backport then perhaps they should be on the latest Fedora where the latest code is more likely to land sooner. In the case of the app servers running TurboGears, I think that it was a lack of TG requirements on RHEL4 that held us back. I also think we're close to having TG for RHEL5 so we might want to move test servers to RHEL5, check that the applications run there, and then move the app servers handling those to RHEL. -Toshio
