"Lack of packages"? People have been railing against Red Hat's "bloat" for years.
Any way, if that is not enough you can go to Dries Repository - or Dag Wieers - or rpmfind.net - or... or... or...
Same with out-dated software. The big pitch with RHEL is you don't have software updated constantly with the instability that brings.
What's more, this is not a distribution "based on" RHEL - this is a open-source RHEL clone! So to say that "X is missing" is to misunderstand the purpose of CentOS.
If you want something enhanced, look at Caos instead - the RH-based distribution created as a new product by the cAos team.
