It's on my list of things to do.  Templates were a hot topic in a couple
of talks at Linux Plumbers last week in New Orleans.  I seem to have
ended up handling the Fedora template at the moment and I see the
templates for RHEL/CentOS/SL as an offshoot of that effort.  I've got a

Any help is appreciated...
