Thx. Yeah, I got that. I also understand that GIO is, by far, the
recommended option.

So our options are:

  1. We stick w/ CentOS5 as our ref build system for 4.2.0 but force
     Gnome VFS.

  2. We move to CentOS6, accept the default of GIO but understand that
     this moves CentOS5 as a non-supported OS for our community builds.

  3. Just as we offer Linux 32 and 64bit builds, starting w/ 4.2.0
     we offer CentOS5 community builds (w/ Gnome VFS) IN ADDITION
     TO CentOS6 builds (w/ GIO). (i.e.: 32bit-Gnome VFS, 64bit-Gnome VFS,
     32bit-GIO, 64bit-GIO).

It doesn't matter to me... I'm setup to be able to
do any and all options re: builds. Whatever makes most
sense for our end-users and community is what we should
do.
