    <div class="moz-cite-prefix">Uh, no.  It's very much alive and
      reinvigorated since Red Hat decided to employ the core CentOS
      development team (earlier this year? late last year? Can't
      remember; regardless, it was about 4-5 years late).<br>
      <br>
      Check their security announcements mailing list and you'll see. 
      CentOS is on a much more stable footing now than it was a year or
      two ago.<br>

          You're still using CentOS? Seriously? 2008, if I recall
          correctly, the problems started. By 2011 it was effectively a
          dead distro.<br>
          <br>

        There's other EL distros and better EL distros for your systems.
