Hi Andreas,
my two cents to your questions: a) If you want to learn most, take any distro and compile the components from source and afterwards use them. => Most learned. b) I don't know how others think about it: But I use a cluster to try to increase uptime. If I know that a disto's component is buggy causing failures while doing the first steps with a more or less standard config (corosync/pacemaker/drbd + some service) I have two choices when I have to stick to a distro's repos: 1) Take the next step distro 6.4 in your case. But it can have bugs too. 2) Ask why it is important to stick to the ditro's repos with a certain software stack. In your case I don't know why it is "allowed" to build drbd from source and it's not "allowed" to build the cluster stack from source. Especially while getting the feet wet with corosync/pacemaker and all the stuff is much more effort compared to the effort understanding, configuring and maintaining a cluster. My policy is also to keep as close as possible to the distro's repos. But when I need a newer or more stable version of a software, I have to use it.

If you're building from source, why are you sticking to such an old version?
