Actually, nobody objects trying to work on this if the project is funded, and if a sponsor would come up and request that this and that feature must be available on RHEL 5 AND fund that work, we'd be more than happy to do that. The plain fact is that this is a myth. Nobody wants to fund such work, which IMHO is also a very good conclusion that nobody *seriously* wants it.
