Since Mr. Hughes had already gotten earlier versions of chromium to build under CentOS 6 (c.f. http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/chromium/6/), and he indicated it was merely a matter of getting RHEL to give permission for him to redistribute it more "formally" to the community, I was hoping progress had been made with that. Have you, as the CentOS project lead ever asked RedHat if they can make their version of Chromium for CentOS 6 available for us? If not, can you please?

I think if we can demonstrate some traction, it would go a long way in both the upstream engagement and the conversation with Red Hat - since we can then demonstrate a communal win.> Since Mr. Hughes had already gotten earlier versions of chromium > to build under CentOS 6 (c.f. > http://people.centos.org/hughesjr/chromium/6/), and he indicated it > was merely a matter of getting RHEL to give permission for him to > redistribute it more "formally" to the community, I was hoping > progress had been made with that.Johnny, can you perhaps quantify the effort a bit ? And if you need help what sort of help you might need for this ? I suspect a large part of that is just going to be time in day.> Have you, as the CentOS project lead ever asked RedHat if they can > make their version of Chromium for CentOS 6 available for us? If > not, can you please?I havent, but am more than willing to take the question up. regards, - -- Karanbir Singh, Project Lead, The CentOS Project +44-207-0999389 | http://www.centos.org/ | twitter.com/CentOS GnuPG Key : http://www.karan.org/publickey.asc -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.22 (GNU/Linux) iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJXFNjCAAoJEI3Oi2Mx7xbtUMEH/2Mfo+5+hx4cfD9FvVg6nHQQ m+tbd1Ku/ytstZNhNJpHx95HoeJVfdC71y+6SylLWxxJ+1ridbaZ5t7dC1qEL5Rt hJEG1rIhJNTs4W1eIO4XeEQVzwOjzcsLwtNlTWypd6PVp8RVJqjOFk6ohN/gK3VW hLIoli+hwOdUxY81cbSqVJ+DJjvmBUupiZJqFlsRsutFd/LUL0MsOuexhqTeawIu G6qT/xudeq/eBU4TqPvnpO5NgKHjePTQEuDYmnmjG1F5xrw38HYeg6i3a8Fmv5wc NKuXZy4S8D96EBfm/R9g/RBm7umojXwz7MLkRHd3bq+GLHpa10Onb883XOxDqrU=UErC -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
