As far i understood nothing will change with regard of data path for
distribution of CentOS (it will be the same process of taking _released_
srpms, clean up, rebuild). RH just extend an administrative umbrella
(and some significant support) over the CentOS organization.

Anyway, as rebuilding and re-branding is quite intensive i was wondering
if the differences between centos and sl could be packed in some repo
(as most (that i know of) of the cern scientific software is already put
into).
What technical differences would be between CentOS + scientific repo and SL?

Just a personal thought, but maybe this would free some human resources
for maintaining a lot of scientific (and IT/grid related) packages in
well established repos (like epel, fedora/rpmfusion)

Thanks!
