Why has it taken me so long to spot this ? Looks like this draft was written on the 13th May, if I hadn't have been just about to download FC7 then I'd have missed it !

EPEL - Fedora Project Wiki
EPEL is a volunteer-based community effort from the Fedora project to create a repository of high-quality add-on packages that complement the Fedora-based Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and its compatible spinoffs like CentOS or Scientific Linux.

About time, and thank you redhat/fedora, want fedora extra packages in centos, then install this epel-release .rpm frickin' sweet ! :cool:
