I always find it eyebrow raising to check the corporate membership list, and see Suse sitting as Gold member while Red Hat is down in Silver.

- boomboomsubban 10y agoRed Hat would rather use that ~$80,000 to hire another kernel developer, the member ranks are just about political clout.
- pekk 10y agoBecause Red Hat never does anything that is about political clout?
- boomboomsubban 10y agoNo, they aren't donating more to the Linux foundation for political clout.
- kahrkunne 10y agoOr 10,000 man-hours worth of systemd shills (just kidding, they do it for free) Red Hat spends plenty of money on political clout, just not this specific clout
- aratno 10y agoWhy would they donate money for corporate sponsorship ranks if they're already donating so much code? Honest question. I thought they were the second largest contributor to the kernel code base after Intel.
