Actually, although it is filled with mis-information, Amahi for CentOS 6 is
being discussed:

Most of the information is just wrong. The EL5 series is based on FC6. EL5.5
(Update 5) is still based on FC6, but a few, select "rebases" have taken place
(e.g., bind97 is 9.7 w/full DNSSEC is now a concurrent release to the existing,
base bind which is 9.3). Most other things are still backports.
Backports are what make existing configurations compatible going forward. It's
the cost of "sustaining engineering" that Novell-SuSE and Red Hat customers pay
for. If you look through the Amahi applications list, there are just all sorts
of "orphans" or "mix'n match" for Fedora 9, 10, 12, 14, etc... Not ideal.
