We are still in the early days of CentOS-6, and perhaps a change in
policy at this time might be acceptable. I'd like to propose moving the
CR repo into the mainline repos. So the change I'm proposing is :
- to have a /6/ release that is always updated.
- to have the /6.X/ releases that are contained to within that point release
what this means is that /6/ will point at the most recent release of
6.X/ for the os/ & isos/ repo. The other repos would be local to the /6/
symlink, and will be always updated ( and stay that way ).
there is going to be quite a lot of implications backend / mirror side
that we will need to work out, but its effort + pain as a one off, for
what can be a major improvement in the user experience.
thoughts ?

I agree. I think there is no added value to this seperate repo. Besides it
is stalling new releases coming out sooner. +1
