This is really, really bad for the majority of us using CentOS.
Is there any way we can lobby for the reversal of this decision? Remember
that the -devel mailing list, and IRC channels *do not* represent the vast

On Tuesday,
I agree this is shocking news. If we don't want to be beta testers and
want to continue to use a stable tested OS should we be moving to RHEL
servers? Is there a license-free RHEL server option that is the
recommended path from using CentOS?

It appears that Red Hat has taken ownership of a free and opensource OS and is
now making decisions regarding it. Maybe it is time to look at Oracle Linux.
