No - the developers of this project will support 389-ds the same in centos as we always have, the same as we have supported fedora/rhel/opensuse. As a project and a team we take quality very seriously, and even in a rolling release like centos or opensuse tumbleweed we will ensure that upgrades will work. Having previously worked at RH I can also assert that I trust the RH QE teams to do great work to maintain the high standard of centos in the future as well.

The 'core team' does not have much involvement in the debian 389-ds packaging process, but the debian maintainer has always been responsive and done a great job from what I am able to observe. I would expect there to be "very little" difference between debian and centos 389-ds packages.

Additionally, you could also consider opensuse leap and/or suse linux enterprise if you want paid support (disclosure - I work for suse and am paid to maintain 389-ds in those distributions).
