Given the aim to keep the subscriber list very limited, this probably
falls into a tentatively subscribed category too.  AFAIK, CentOS has
rather few components that are not rebuilds of the RHEL SRPMs, the
question is how often a v-s info was useful in the past in providing
security updates for those extra packages.

Thanks for the post furthering the marketing goals of your 
corporate master; ...

FWIW, I found Tomas' posting appropriate and his question desirable,
which is confirmed by your helpful response (starting with the second
paragraph).  If not Tomas, others would (hopefully) have the same
question, which was reasonable and it needed to be addressed in here.

So I'd like to thank both of you.  I only wish this did not result in
that tone of Russ' response, but we can live with that.
