Please? :-)

I try to keep up with (some parts of) PlanetCCRMA for CentOS 4 and
5. My public repo is quite outdated now, and I need some time to find
a good way to keep it in sync with my private repo (which I cannot
open to the outside world because of license issues), but I still have
some hope.

By the way, would there be a way to automatically pick up your new
packages, including newer versions of older stuff? AFAICT you don't
announce every minor update on planetccrma-news, do you? I could
probably figure it out from my rsync logs, I guess I have just found a
new project for my spare time of next week. :-)

Actually, from my experience, few packages won't build or run on older
systems (older meaning RHEL4 and its clones). Ardour being among the
exceptions.
