What would you expect? CentOS is based off of RHEL, which tries to
stick to older more stable/tested software. Your using the wrong
distribution if you want the latest and greatest.
Use Ubuntu, Fedora, or something else.
As a casual user I'm happy with the gnome that comes with my Debian
Etch install which seems to be somewhere around 2.14-2.16, and whatever
version comes with Ubuntu 7.10(haven't turned that laptop on in a couple
of months).
Really, what did you expect? Do you expect folks out there to constantly
build the latest & greatest for a "stable" distribution that consists
primarily of users that don't want the latest & greatest (which is why
they use that distribution in the first place).
