PUIAS Linux was started long before CentOS or other projects were available. Even if you do not install the core distribution, the Addons, Computational and Unsupported repositories may be of use to you.
The Addons repository contains additional packages not included in a stock Red Hat distribution.
The Computational repository also includes additional packages, however, these packages are specific to scientific computing.
The Unsupported repository is a place where one time packages are put, they are unsupported and may change frequently.

· We are publishing the final puias 6.2 today and we made it the default for puias 6. Machines on automatic setup can expect to receive the update tonight - if you would like to keep your machines at 6.1 for now consider either stopping your rsync'ing of the main mirror or creating /etc/yum/vars/releasever file with content 6.1 on such machines.
