I too moved on to Ubuntu some 6 or so months ago because I could see that CentOS 6 was going to be a problem. While I can appreciate that the CentOS are doing what they can do given the parameters they have to work from, I can only see Red Hat killing off their base in order to protect their base. I'm all for a successful CentOS as I see it just helps the Linux & Red Hat ecosystem to have them successfully re-spin the upstream product.
