Quoting their homepage[1]:
SL is a Linux release put together by Fermilab, CERN, and various
other labs and universities around the world. Its primary purpose is to
reduce duplicated effort of the labs, and to have a common install base
for the various experimenters.
The base SL distribution is basically Enterprise Linux, recompiled
from source.
If it is about reducing duplicated effort on the labs I'd consider a
Debian Science Blend (perhaps with some preconfiguration sugar as Debian
Edu is doing) a very reasonable way to go. At least exacly this is
the intention of Debian Science.
Kind regards
Andreas.
