Agreed, from a stability and lifecycle perspective, CentOS is much better than (and in my opinion an upgrade to) Fedora Core 1.
But from a package perspective, many of the items in an up2date Fedora Core 1 install are newer than the packages in CentOS, so they won't upgrade via yum (since the installed Fedora Core 1 packages are already newer).

It is a downgrade and not an upgrade to go from CentOS to Fedora Core 1 ... CentOS is an upgrade from RedHat 9 but a Downgrade from FC1.
I meant that it is a downgrade to go from FC1 to CentOS ... as RHEL 3 was released from RedHat 9.0 code, then FC1 was released later.
