Althought I could provide RPMS for the lates version
of CentOS which should be binary comatible with RHEL4
systems.

Were it up to me, I'd post the RPMs for RHEL with a prominent disclaimer on the support issue. (But then I'd probably want to separate builds for RHEL3/RHEL4...) Many people aren't aware of the improved ability to build RHEL packages from the tarball, and they only see the complete lack of RHEL binary packages as non-support for RHEL.

And I think a CentOS "branch" symlinked to the RHEL branch, or vice-versa, would be a nice recognition of that program...
