Thoughts on RHEL going closed source ?
Thoughts on RHEL going closed source ?
I’m curious about what you think on how it will affect the Linux community and distros (especially RHEL based distros like Fedora or Rocky).
You're viewing a single thread.

Seem more accurate that their public repos will be closed, so now only centos-stream will be public. You will still have full access to source through their developer program or as a paying customer.
Thanks, by reading "RHEL going closed source" first thing I thought is that would violate the GPL license, but the article you linked seems to indicate that's not the case.
CentOS is basically RHEL without Red Hat commercial stuff, so sources will still be freely available, just not directly from Red Had, am I understanding it correctly?

No, CentOS is no longer a RHEL clone, but a beta version of stuff that goes into RHEL.
I can't be the only one who has no real interest in dealing with their developer program just to support their outdated distro.
undefined> u will still have full access to source through their developer program or as a pa
Their developer plan is free
Is this a fork in the stream, then at this point?
