I wouldn't classify them as "quite good".  They're good with what they
have with lots of bandwidth, but they're not good at keeping up to date.
Do *not* rely on them for security updates - they have a tendency to
skip updates and will not work with Red Hat to ensure that they're
current.  If you assume you're current because you have installed the
patches they've got listed, you could find yourself in for a nasty
surprise.
