I've been using RHEL, and am looking to move to SL because of the built-in
OpenAFS and freedom from Red Hat's "installation numbers" and arbitrary

repository such as Dag's could give a range of available packages
comparable to Debian/Ubuntu. Is anyone doing this, and how well does it
work?

We already provide a provide /etc/yum.repo.d/ entries for dag and atrpms. They are enabled by default. One can change the default of course.
So installing any of their packages is as easy as

yum --enablerepo=dag install ...
