So I wonder what are the chances of seeing CentOS6 in 2011. Or perhaps a more realistic date is 2012? (Maybe you are waiting for the release of DNF?)
The problem with this kind of question is the closed development process of CentOS.
Even Microsoft's development process (public beta, rc, roadmap, release date) is more open than in CentOS.
A good example of a transparent development process is Scientific Linux.
The price is right - use both if you want. The SL alphas are out now and should be close enough for testing purposes.
Actually I switched my RHEL6b2 to current SL and it works perfectly so far.
Did you go down the package list and do "yum re-install" of all the packages which have identical names in both? It's potentially helpful to avoid confusion about subtly different "foo-release-version.arch.rpm" packages from each repository, which can happen when both repositories publish new releases as increments of a single digit from the previous release.
