I'll keep this short because I'm getting tired of repeating myself...

Allow me to give you a history lesson:
http://updates.redhat.com/enterprise/2.1WS/en/os/SRPMS/

Please get past the mentality of "big bad Red Hat is out to get me".

As I recall, you were the one that wanted to contribute.  According to the
archives, you said:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2003-December/msg02265.html
" I'd gladly pay for a relatively stable for Fedora. But the only way I
can pay is by being a beta tester? "

And the answer is yes.  If you would like to support Fedora you contribute
to the community by beta testing the distro.

I don't recall (and don't see in the archives) ever saying you "had" to
run the beta distros, or "had" to buy RHEL.  I most certainly did not call
you a leech.
