On a different note, I had heard rumors that the CentOS and Scientific Linux 
teams might work together.  Any substance there (being that there are things 
Scientific Linux has that I like and use, but they seem to be pretty much 
duplicating your effort)?  It would seem to be a good fit if the teams can 
work together and pool resources (particularly, the SL team has lots of 
bandwidth available).
