I haven't been following the controversy, but I've moved away from CentOS in
the last year because I got tired of dealing with stale packages.  While I
understand that RHEL/CentOS drive toward stability and not being on the
bleeding edge, being several minor releases back on packages like PostgreSQL
and Ruby was really keeping some of the functionality/improvements I
wanted/needed from being utilized.
