Give the thanks to RedHat, cuz I didn't do it.

Sounds good to me if the license it ok.  We want SL6 to be self build-able.
Where did you get it from?

Sorry, but I'm going to say no to this.  We want users to be able to 
jump from RHEL to SL to CentOS without problems.  Changing graphics 
isn't anything major, but changing the default font affects alot of things.

We have never tried to obliterate every RHEL instance from the release.
We have removed everything that we legally need to.
We have changed everything that your average user is going to see that 
might make them think SL is from RedHat, or that they can go to RedHat 
for support for SL.
Beyond that, I have to ask why?

I was going to wait to do this after the final release.  Just incase 
some of the different pictures change before the final.
