OK ... we are going to push the missing 6.0/os/SRPMS into the tree after
they are signed later ... but in the mean time, you can get them from
here if you can't wait:

http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/missing-srpms/os/

(those are not signed, but I just gathered them up)

We should get another batch of SRPMS into vault for CR as well later
today or tomorrow:

http://vault.centos.org/6.0/cr/SRPMS/Packages/

Attachment: signature.asc
Description: OpenPGP digital signature
