What I found particular interesting was the sneering at the "E" in WBEL=20
because it's basically a reroll of RHEL - when that's what CentOS is=20
too! I don't mean that in a disparaging way - without the rerolls, we'd=20
be stuck with Fedora or lots of outgoing cash. I've run both, and have a=20
couple of current CentOS boxes now.

I definitely agree with the person who said that there's room for both.=20
I've personally gone Ubuntu with as many boxes as I've been able, but I=20
still remain connected to this list because I'm sentimental, and I=20
learned a lot from the folks here. I also still provide 64-bit xine RPMs=20
that work on WBEL, CentOS, and RHEL on my web site.
