TIL Nothing I write is useful.
- piaste 3y agoCarl George, a principal SWE at Red Hat, claimed to have found exactly one code contribution from the Rocky Linux or Alma projects back to RHEL - a two-line bugfix in a .spec post script. https://old.reddit.com/r/redhat/comments/14jq5i7/red_hats_commitment_to_open_source_a_response_to/jpoeunh/ https://old.reddit.com/r/redhat/comments/14jq5i7/red_hats_co... (Which is only what I, an ignoramus, would expect - if the project aims for "bug-for-bug compatibility", then it doesn't really gain much value from fixing bugs, while a fork would.) If you think his evaluation of Alma/Rocky contributions is incorrect or incomplete, I'd be interested in hearing your POV as a Rocky engineer.
- nhanlon 3y agoYes, I am aware of Carl and his biases.
