I see the above fragment in the draft newsletter, and frankly 
am disappointed at proposed content not using the packaging 
system.  It is clearly not a 'best practice'.  The item in 
question will run as root, and one assumes will over time be 
updated and have security fixes.

In a CentOS publication, we should not be proposing installing 
time bombs that a later admin 'cannot see'.  We are all that 
later admin as time packages and we forget the details of a 
particular installation
