Why is there so much noise about this *now* ? http://www.redhat.com/archives/redhat-watch-list/2002-December/msg00008.html I believe people had more than one year to do something about this. Fedora is free($$$$, sources and binaries), if you need longer lifetime is because you are going to *win money* with it. And Red Hat wants his part, this is capitalism. If you hate it, sorry URSS was going down :-) Red Hat sells products/services. If you like it, pay for it. If you hate it, change you to another distribution. Other thing is on *.edu, *.org and nonprofit organizations *without lucrative aims/projects* I believe Red Hat _should relax_ RHEL license or doing lower prices.
