Things like a current kernel with ext3 would be just a start :-) If we move to use krud's RedHat 7.2 release we get the most current errata and bug patched RedHat 7.2 release. More current then any RedHat released iso. In addition krud issues monthly releases and provides for an easy built-in update tool that polls the krud site for new rpms. They do this for far cheaper then RedHat's Network service. Basically I'm thinking back to previous development project ideas for moving forward onto the latest and greatest RedHat kernel, ext3 release. Krud appeared to me to be possibly a better choice then following a generic RedHat release track where we all have to reinvent the wheel and manually add the current errata and bug patches. Krud seems to do this for you. In addition there may be opportunities to invite their development team and community to join in the effort. They appear to be experienced with RedHat's latest and greatest. This is just an idea I'm running up the devinfo flag pole. I realize this is 'thinking outside the box' but maybe it's time to get out of the box anyhow.
