Ok, everyone already pointed out that both SL and CentOS are almost identical
true.
The SL distro has rather specific purpose --- to form a common basic
true.
This means the following --- in the future, RHEL and derivatives (like CentOS)
might possibly push some updates that could interfere with the custom-made
true.
This is of course unacceptable,
very true.
means that SL will in time start lagging behind in being updated,
_maybe_ to your thinking.
and some
updates may well never reach the users of SL.
again, to your thinking.
The bottom line is that SL, CentOS and RHEL are equivalent *now*, but in
future this may/will not be so, and SL will be regarded as "older".
still to your thinking.
If I were an ordinary user/admin of a system unrelated to Cern and/or grid
stuff, I would stick to CentOS and leave SL to people who really need it
as a user, yes. as an admin of any system greater than 1 box, i can see
many advantages of having system software that is 'grid capable'.
in a system of 1+, where is there no advantage of having a grid to share
any form of number crunching, program compiling? or anything else that will
take a single computer a long time to accomplish?
if you do not recognize yourself to be among those target users, my
suggestion is to leave it alone.
and again, for a single box, i agree 100%, to a point.
that point being if i am not doing any thing, why not share?
seti.org, for example, which i admit, i have not yet joined. but key word
here is *yet*.
as for members of this list, there are several that i would open my system
to and do so readily.
