Hey, a fellow Torontonian. :)

I stick with what is officially supported by Red Hat, quite simply. I am
tracking Pacemaker's progress closely, and plan to start learning it
more earnestly before too long. At the moment though, there are two
major issues for me with Pacemaker;

* It's in technology preview in EL6 at the moment, so no z-stream  updates.
* The implementation of fencing (aka stonith) are not the way I need
them to be.

Pacemaker is awesome, and it will be the future, but at the moment,
cman+rgmanager is what is most stable, so that is where I work. :)

Also, for anything aiming at production, I *strongly* recommend staying
away from compiling your own apps. For learning/testing though, running
from the latest versions and then filing bugs against the code is always
appreciated. :)
