bjdea1, I apologize if my post came across a bit harsh, that was not my intention. I was referring to both yours and cybernet2u's post when I was writing mine and just wanted to make clear to anyone else reading this thread that OpenVZ RHEL 6 kernel isn't affected by the lack of CentOS 6 updates.
To perhaps answer the other part of your post - we're currently deploying SL 6 on a bunch of new servers and promote it's VM templates instead of CentOS 6 to our customers. It's been nothing but a smooth ride for us.
Technically, it does all I expect it to do and the SL community seems very nice too. The developers seem to be on top of things, considering their response times when it comes to small SL-related bugs and, most importantly, upstream updates.
We have been using CentOS since it first came out and stuck with it as long as we could, despite all the problems. I have the highest regard for many of the community members there and I hope their developers manage to turn things around. But to be honest, it doesn't look good and at the moment, SL seems like a better choice. All IMHO, of course.
I'd also like to hear others who perhaps use SL / OpenVZ combo, so if anyone else is reading... do chip in.
