Hi Martin,
 From reading this list, I believe there are plans for BQ on Centos5, 
but nothing exists yet to my knowledge.   I do not know of any way to 
downgrade a Centos5 install to Centos4, and certainly I would not do it 
remote even if it were possible.   There would be a lot involved in that!

What I would suggest is to find a host that is competent in BlueQuartz. 
   I know that it's something that we do, and we certainly serve 
customers in Germany and all around the world.  I know that there are 
other providers like us as well.  You might try contacting some off-list 
to see if you can find anybody else that can give you the service and 
price you are looking for.
