Well, if you know what the goal of CentOS is, then ranting about
something that is not in RHEL (and therefore also not in CentOS) is
quite silly.

If it is in RHEL, it is here .. if not, then it isn't

I don't see that changing in the foreseeable future.

But feel free to start a 100 post rant about how screwed up CentOS is if
you like.

However, a better action would be to buy an RHEL subscription and then
convince them that you need more stuff in RHEL.

Thanks,
