Interesting. CentOS 5 was supposed ti be based on Fedora Core 6 work so
now I wonder just what the difference(s) are?
The difference is that RHEL (the sources that Centos recompiles) cares
enough about their user base to maintain a stable kernel interface for
the life of the distribution version - which is much longer than
fedora's. The down side is that applications don't get version upgrades
as the distro version ages, just security and bugfix updates.
That depends on the applications themselves. Some of the desktop
applications in particular do get version upgrades too.
