Can anyone comment on the use of 3rd party repos for newer versions of software like php, python and mysql? Two I am aware of are puias and ius.
note that there is now a php5.3 in the base repository, I believe it was part of the 6.4 update, its called php53. I would use this over a 3rd party packaged version unless there's an overriding reason you need a different build.
Your are confusing 5 with 6?
CentOS 5 has php 5.1.6 *and*, i.e. alternately php53 5.3.3
CentOS 6 always had php 5.3.3
php seems to be one of the things where upstreams backporting strategy did not fit anymore.
