I cannot give a detailed list of all the modified files and it is not supposed 
to impact any officially supported Linux distribution. Since you did not send 
an patch for the support of SL5.5, the distribution is still not officially 
supported and therefore, i cannot guarantee that the update to 6.1.1 or any 
other update will not generate any problem. This is the typical rules of open 
source development: if you want support, contribute back your modifications.

Again no guarantees of any any kind since you did not submit your patches. I 
do not support locally modified version of OSCAR for obvious reasons.

No and again i will do anything to support a locally modified version of 
OSCAR. Submit your patches, i will include them and then support your 
distribution.
