you seem to be confused, this isnt Fedora-devel and Kmod's are not obsoleted in the distro.
You also have the wrong list really. The only thing we are working with are kmod's at the moment and that is unlikely to change for a long time still.
kmod's are not in the upstream distro even:-( the only problem with everybody has to face of is that you have to recompile all kmods all the time when a new kernel released. for you it'd have to be much more work since you've to do it for all platform and for centosplus kernels etc. but i'm sure 95% of the time you just made an rpmbuild --rebuild ...src.rpm. and it's always happened later than the kernel released (even if you're very fast). and that's why many people looking other solution. so that's why i assumed that may be centos will change it's kernel module building.
but i understand that centos won't switch from kmod to any others in the near future.
