I'd have to agree with this.

<div>This is exactly why I switched from Fedora to CentOS. I was growing tired of the constantly evolving baseline that required me to keep up or get left behind. I wanted something more stable.</div>

<div>My 24.3 mythbackend is currently on a CentOS 5 host. I have a nice well built CentOS 6 host sitting next to it that I plan on first migrating to and then upgrading. There is an ATrpms user that has provided some updated MythTV packages. Can't remember if they are 26 or 27.</div>
