Just to be aware, based on my reviews and popular comments I personally wouldn't install anything outside of CentOS repo's, EPEL or RPMForge. Even then with EPEL and RPMForge it's mostly for a couple of things not in CentOS.
I'd rather stick with officially released and trusted sites that I know of. I think you for the pointer though Yury, I hope someone else finds use of it :) --Victor On Thu, Mar 11, 2010 at 12:08 AM, Yury V.
