The support from somewhere else raises the question of from where?
Which raise the risk that IBM could kill CentOS. Once done, there is no choice for company but to pay for RedHat or migrate to Debian.
- Conan_Kudo 8y agoThis makes the openSUSE Leap -> SUSE Linux Enterprise supported upgrade strategy interesting, because if someone started out with openSUSE Leap 15.0, they can trivially attach a SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 subscription to it and convert the system, and remain fully supported by SUSE in the process. So with that available, if SUSE isn't completely stupid on how to go to market, they'll actually figure out a way to capitalize on that.

- lima 8y agoThey can't kill CentOS. It was an independent project for a long time, and it can go back to being independent. Worst thing they can do is delay the next release and force them to change their name.
