Fred,
I'm not sure that I understand this.  You're not permitted to use the
source, but if someone else packages the source into an rpm for you,
then it's ok?

I'm neither a UNIX guru nor an IT professional, but this does not
make sense to me.  Unless it's that they want the rpm directly from 
Red Hat for security/stability reasons...

Question for the list:  how much work (hours) would it likely be for a
competent person to take the source and make an rpm for it?

Greg
