Good ... if you don't like CentOS, then we do not want you to use it.

For people who do like it, we do want you to use it.

What we do not want is for people to think that they have a Service
Level Agreement with CentOS to produce updates on their schedule.

If you WANT a service level agreement with me, then you may contract for
one.  If you pay me enough, I will guarantee you updates on what ever
schedule you are willing to pay for.  I will be very professional in my
dealings with you in that case too.

When you want something that is provided for free, and when you want to
treat me like you are paying me a million dollars a year to give it to
you, guess what ...

You can also get service level agreements from Red Hat or from Oracle or
Novell.
