I've got mock configs handy and a local RHEL6 beta tree, but it hasn't been wired up in plague yet. I'll try to devote some further attention to that relatively soon, but we may not want to be doing a whole lot of builds until we can build against a newer tree. Anyone have any idea on ETA for CentOS 6?

Wednesday is actually November 10, but yes, there's a Red Hat media event...
