That's true. Am still working on a mechanism that will allow to upgrade a 
BlueQuartz to BlueOnyx. But truth to be told: It will not be for the faint at 
heart and I cannot guarantee that it will work 100% for everyone.

After all, even the official canon of the CentOS developers is: There is no 
seamless upgrade from CentOS4 to CentOS5.

The more "customized" a BlueQuartz is, the more tricky the procedure will get 
anyway. I'll do my best to roll an upgrade mechanism out, but for the time 
being (and even afterwards) CMU will be the safest and cleanest way to do it.
