Hello Marc Recently I did some changes in scripts from https://github.com/liedekef/spacewalk_scripts, specifically "centos-clone-errata-full.sh", where you will be able to download all erratas since 2004, and using another script "centos-clone-errata.sh", you can update daily for example, getting info directly from mail list.
The cefs is a good option too, take a look in both. Let me know if you have some doubt.
