Will keep our devops stuff on CentOS 6.5 for at least another 4 years...

What if someone needs one of the newer packages provided by RHEL7?

What if I don't?

Most of our stuff is on JVMs apart from SVN/DAV/apache/LDAP and that's a 40 min job to get packages ready for from srpms from scratch. We just have our own repo and import stuff that isn't in the distro repo ourselves.

FreeBSD looking like a good option in the future.

They can use the software collections to install it.
