Have read the announcement on CentOS site. It is great that the project will keep going for lots of reasons.
Being a very compatible version of Red Hat to deploy on small business that can't afford the real one or opt to use the "clone" is already good.
But also being a long life span/stable distro with a knowledgeable community, good support, great wiki and nice articles around the web (specially on howtoforge) makes it my favorite professional distro.
Go CentOS, go!
