You know what's better than free? Something that's free and also being used by the majority of industry players. Personally I think this news is a huge one for Linux and RHEL based users community in general. This is the main reason why FSF's GPL is a great license for open source software. According to the article not only the Rocky Linux becomes the natural successor for CentOS, it also added the real-time capability to RHEL based clones, and all it's done with the collaboration with the Linux community. This looks to me like a RHEL distro on steroid and before long there will be tens if not hundreds of books using the Rocky Linux in its title descriptions.
