CentOS lacks of latest kernel, latest software upgrade.
EPEL and elrepo enhanced CentOS. But there be bad side. They were not ship by CentOS community officially. Which means their project may discontinued in any time.
Why Debian do their best provided us the backports packages? Enhanced the debian environment.The sad side is CentOS community Lack of vision.
No responsibility, no future

In the past, we had specifically avoided doing this for a few reasons: 1. We didn't want to be accused of playing favorites with 3rd party repos 2. We didn't want the expectation of support ("I didn't add anything to the default centos, I just yum-installed it!") 3. We didn't want to ship code that wasn't built/signed by us. Given the new structure, it may be worth having this conversation again.
