Is there a definitive release date for 6.1? I would like to have srpm for 6.0, if possible, to start building up my pilot.
Thanks

The next update will be in 6.1. I can probably cobble together a srpm
that would work on 6.0 until 6.1 is released if you'd like.

Yeah, this is a bit of a grey area right now. IPA does a lot of cat
herding and keeping all the various versions of the packages we require
in sync is very tedious.
For a pilot I think you'd be fine using Fedora 14 though I would
recommend doing some amount of re-testing in F-15 once it is released.
We've done 80% of our development in F-14 and it works very well. The
dogtag project built F-14 packages for us as a favor. They don't want to
support deployments of it because they've done zero testing of their own
on F-14. You'd need to build the packages yourself though, we haven't
pushed this to F-14 because of the dogtag issue. mock should be able to
build it fairly painlessly.
What I've done for my F-15 installations is to install F-14 and then
upgrade to Fedora-15 from there. It has been fairly painless. The GA IPA
release is in the stable repo of F-15 now.
