So far as I can tell, there aren't any errata yet for 3.0.  Perhaps
that's why it's not on their server.  :)

I wasn't aware that they released SRPMS for errata... I assumed (shame
on me) it was only for release packages.  Hmm...

Ok, but that's not as simple as you make it sounds.  What part of that
provides for 5 years of patches?  Paying for the initial purchase of
RHAS/ES/WS (license based)?  Paying for RHAS/ES/WS all 5 years
(subscription based)?  Paying for 5 years of update (see my other post)
only?
