CentOS-5 is the Release

CentOS-5.0, CentOS-5.1 and CentOS-5.2 are update sets of CentOS-5 ... and are still CentOS-5. The .0, .1, and .2 are update sets and are really just a "frozen point in time" of CentOS-5.

Yum upgrades will always get you all the updates that are released for CentOS-5 ... and that will automatically update you to the latest CentOS-5 version.

If you are running CentOS-4 and you run yum ... you will be updated to CentOS-4.6 now and to CentOS-4.7 when it is released. You will not be updated to CentOS-5.x from any version of CentOS-4.

Does this make sense?

Is there a quick way to tell where any particular machine is in the minor-rev level when the release file just says 5?
