Yes, but it seems to be rather closely held.

There has been extensive support and agitation among the user-base for 
more timely updates, particularly for security issues.  It seems obvious 
to me that there is considerable room for improvement.

A lot of people have been thinking rather hard about how CentOS can be 
improved.  Please share your thoughts on what needs to be done, and 
carry through with a plan of action to accomplish it.  Nobody is in a 
better position to do that than you are.
