CentOS is just a rebuild of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Since there is no
point release of Fedora, you have to compare a upgrade from say CentOS
4.x to CentOS 5.x.

Other than that, I have continued to use yum (and other times using
preupgrade) to upgrade to new releases of Fedora and they have worked fine.
