This is also correct. The question of pushing drupal6 packages to EL-5 is
probably a matter of whether there's a demand for druapl6 running on RHEL5
and whether anyone wants to take the time to package it.
Fedora Infrastructure has a need for drupal6. The new insight project
will be using drupal6 and the app servers are currently (and will be
for a while) running EL5.
