Ricardo, Thanks - and yes, I know it took a bit longer than it should have. We just need to make sure that does not happen again

Uff.. that was I long ride. But in the end it's all about stability and quality of the end product. Let us hope there will be no more issues.

Just wanted to drop a line to you personally and thank you for (a) all the hard work that you continue to do to maintain CentOS as the best free enterprise distro ever; and (b) specifically for the decision to release 5.6 first. The latter was especially important for me as an enterprise infrastructure guy. We run RHEL on tons (literally) of servers in production but I've got CentOS installed on several virtual machines for initial testing of patches and new apps. The release of the 5.6 update has been a big help in that work.
