No argument that moving away from tested core packages may compromise
stability, but (at the risk of starting a semantic argument :-) can one
talk about "official support" here? This is, after all, not RHEL.
(e.g. Is CentOSplus official? Guess not - plenty of caveats about
replacing core packages, but it works pretty well for me.) The
community support is very good, even for "deviants".

No argument here, except for another nit-pick with "official".
Back OT, still never figured out how to get kdm to support multiple
sessions on :1, :2, ... as is reported to work on FC. Any other clues
out there?
