Agreed. The reference to cPanel in this thread makes no sense.  As for
wanting to contribute to the CentOS Project, there is some information
available on the Contribute page of the CentOS wiki [1].  That's a
good place to start.

Ricky, please carefully review the cPanel WHM documentation regarding
initial setup and port numbers. The CentOS lists are not the
appropriate place to ask for cPanel support.

Thanks.

Oh...  A CentOS disruption, even in name only, would be painful.

Are any emails going out?  Perhaps sendmail died? If it were me, I
would start by checking the mail queue (# mailq), the mail log
(/var/adm/maillog), and the sendmail mail transport agent (# service
sendmail status). I use a default setup which requires sendmail to be
running for delivery of mail to r...@locahost.

Hi, Didi.  Are the posters best used as "flyers" for marketing, or as
"souvenirs" for fans?  Or both?

Hi, Didi:  I like the plan.  Are there any feature ideas on the table
for which you need reporters?  I'm ready to volunteer for an
assignment, if needed.

How about more interviews with the CentOS Development Team, perhaps
Karanbir Singh next?  We've seen some interesting interviews with
members Ralph Angenendt [1], Russ Herrold [2], Tru Huynh [3], and Tim
Verhoeven [4], and I'm interested in seeing some more.

I like this idea, too.  However, I feel compelled to point out a
violation within your Data Center [5].

Cheers.
