Probably depends on your view of CR. Here's the announcement for it
the other day:

<http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-March/020980.html>

I updated a machine the other day with a combination of CR and
epel-testing (key MATE things were there still) and it seems fine,
though I haven't tested it heavily yet. The epel things that were in
-testing may have moved to epel base by now.
