Oh give me a break. The CentOS developers have consistently released a solid distribution. If I have to choose between an arbitrary release date and a rock solid distribution, guess which way I'm going to go.
I really think the best way to approach this -- since it appears to be an issue every time there is a point release -- is to figure eight weeks after the Red Hat release. Then you'll be pleasantly surprised when the release is out sooner than that.
Agreed with Ron.
I used RHEL5.4, broke a bunch of stuff so I switched back to Centos 5,3.
Be specific, what "stuff" broke?
I would almost encourage that Centos waits for RHEL patch release to the kernel before they release it or bugs just get duplicated.
Actually... duplicated bugs is intended.
Or does Centos do that already?
No, CentOS does not apply any patches that upstream doesn't apply.
