StarkillerX42,

I remember people on reddit saying the IBM buyout “is no big deal” and IBM will maintain Redhat “in good faith”

What??? Is there an article rather than a video?

here's the exact post right from RH themselves

Am I missing something? Nothing there says anything about becoming closed source?

Quoted from my other post: Well in order to access the CentOS stream repo you need to have a subscription. So really not closed source but rather "harder-to-view-the-source".

carlwgeorge,

Well in order to access the CentOS stream repo you need to have a subscription.

That’s false. The sources are right here, open to the world and open for contribution. What was shut down was the automation to export RHEL source RPMs to the legacy location. The source RPM exports were pretty much useless for contributors and maintainers of RHEL and CentOS. However, they were critical for RHEL rebuilds, which is why people are upset.

havilland,

Has anyone got a source on this? The video doesn’t have any more info linked…

Dammit I just got used to Fedora too. Guess I have to go pure Debian now

Mane25,

Fedora is upstream from RHEL, it won't make the slightest bit of difference.
