It's happened. Red Hat has officially said F@#$ YOU to us all.
Were you a customer? Was Red Hat actually deriving any revenue from the machines you were running Red Hat Linux on besides a trickle of money for Red Hat Network subscriptions? If not, why do you think they should be concerned about what you run now? And how does this have anything to do with full-disclosure? You might want to take discussions like this to an appropriate Red Hat mailing list, not a security discussion list.
Hey Red Hat.. I've got a migration plan for you... it's called BSD / SuSE / Mandrake.
This has been discussed to death on the various Red Hat mailing lists already, but you might want to take a look at... http://fedora.redhat.com/ ...for the continuation of their free distribution (from which RHEL will be derived). It's the natural successor to Red Hat Linux, and if the folks driving the Fedora Legacy project manage to keep up support for releases beyond the 6-8 month lifecycle of Fedora Core, you're in a pretty similar support position to RHL. -- Edward S.
