they didn't have this when they announced the death of centos. this is what they scrambled to come up with when they realized how much of an "oops" move messing with centos really was.
as a peace offering to prevent mindshare from fleeing the redhat ecosystem, i am underwhelmed. i don't think that redhat really realizes yet how cheesed off this made a lot of people.
being shrewish about money is one thing; we can deal with that (see: oracle, IBM). it's really the complete unpredictability and how arrogantly hamfisted this centos debacle was. I can put up with a lot of shit in my job, but what i especially don't like or need is more unreliable unpredictable shit.
