Agree ...

  but WBEL DO NOT HAVE security updates for 10 days? It is not an "guy's
new great idea", it is a PROBLEM. I run it on servers in Internet not in
safer LAN.
  I feel. I made a mistake. I decided to go with WBEL because CDs was
made really quickly (much quicker then CentOS), but as I see in Red Hat
Security Advisory there is big lack of making updates for WBEL (CentOS
have all of them ...) .

  Yes, I can make my own packages from RH .srpm's . I do it. But, WHAT
the ditribution is FOR, when I must do what maintainer should do.
Especialy when no one other can to do that?

  WBEL is great piece of SW but may be it stay on one place but make
move to some kind of cooperation.
