CentOS Question


Well, I love RedHat, and I know my way around their distribution. In the past I've played around with the Fedora Core distributions.

I'm thinking about switching to CentOS for all the servers I install from now on. Since it's based off of RedHat, it should be familiar to me. My question is, do you think CentOS will be around for a while, and will it be a good choice to get reliable updates from for many years to come?

Thanks!

-Mike

Its a community driven distro with lots of contibutors so I don't think it will disappear anytime soon.
