I do. I'm urging an upgrade for the benefit of other mock users still using CentOS's package, unaware of the benefits of the EPEL release, and for the benefits of the CentOS repository build procedures.
CentOS-4 and 5 are built using the mock-0.6 packages, thats unlikely to change unless there is a good reason - speed / performance wins on desktop machines with low resource levels are are not a good reason. Sticking with the process that works and does what it needs to in a reliable manner is worth a lot more. Of course, there are things that are important from the distro perspective, you are welcome to use whatever your site preferences might be.
For CentOS-6, yes were going to clearly need a more recent mock. If you are building for c6 now, use the epel packages that should be a good base to develop from.
