I must be way behind. What happen with RH? I just migrated a bunch of servers to Alma , albeit not in prod but still.
Redhat made it against their terms to rebadge rhel as another distro and locked their source behind a paywall basically, theres more to it but thats the jist
Grandfathering Alma and Rocky, though, correct? I'd find it hard to believe they'd take CentOS, then try to eliminate Alma and Rocky. If there is anything keeping RH alive its that community to enterprise pipeline...
No grandfathering. Alma and rocky are working on a way to continue. The reason was not specifically given but they believe that the community doesn't provide an equal share of value.
My guess is the NASA/qci contract to provide rocky Linux support.
Does anyone know if this affects Fedora based spin offs? For example Nobara.
Shouldnt for now
