Thanks Jon. That's exactly what I was wanting to hear.

Spacewalk supports whatever content you put into it - be it RHEL,
CentOS, or Fedora. With the 0.2 release, it can support all of these
within the same org. I think some of the confusion of it "not
supporting" RHEL comes from the fact that it won't pull content from
RHN (the satellite-sync that you may be used to if you use RHN
Satellite). However, you can get the content from RHN in various ways,
such as mrepo, and put the RHEL content into Spacewalk with rhnpush.
