I can tell you that the base CentOS will always be RHEL SOURCES (plus
yum for doing updates). That is for for any CentOS version (present or
in the future).
As long as the upstream providers release source to the public, CentOS
will track it. We will not upgrade the Base CentOS (except through the
optional CentOS Plus repo for some items).
So, If you install CentOS and not Extras or CentOS Plus, you have only
the versions from currently released upstream source and our mechanism
for updates (yum/createrepo).
