Then my other questions is:  Who supports current Heartbeat packages
suitable for Pacemaker and where I can get sources for them with
appropriate .spec files?

Of course it's not my business, but I think that you guys are badly
hurting a whole project. For example Apache officially closed 2.0.XX
branch and suggest everybody to move to 2.2.X, but they still issue
bugfixes and security patches for that branch. In your case you
suggest people to move to 2.1.3, which is known to have some critical
bugs. Of course you can suggest to move to Pacemaker + Heartbeat, but
packages for such move are available from your site only and you don't
have packages for some critical OSes like RHEL 4.0/CentOS 4.0.
