The RHEL6 beta is out, I'm running it, and I expect a straightforward 
upgrade path to the final release--I think I can just keep grabbing 
updated packages.  Depending on how long your transition from test into 
production is, you might want to consider a similar move, putting RHEL6 
onto something right now in nearly complete form and just slip in 
updates as it moves toward the official release.  It's already better 
than RHEL5 at many things, even as a beta.  The 2.6.18 kernel in 
particular is looking painfully old nowadays.
