BRAVO, BRAVO, I could have not said it better Thomas!!! All need to open their eyes as this is the way that this country is moving as a whole and primarily being driven by the leaders in the federal government by giving Big Business total control over our citizens and government!!! All need to unite and stop Big Business from trashing this country and its citizens. Stop the moving of jobs out of this counter under the name of "FREE TRADE" Free trade, NAFTA and other Free Trade Treaties only makes the rich richer and the poor poorer!!! This is the only country in the world that goes out of their way to trash the jobs for US Citizens. Most countries have laws preventing the importation of workers when there are us citizens that can do the work and deserve to be hired before a person from another country. Again, Time To Protect the US family and the workers in these families instead of the bottom line of Big Business. I apologize for venting this but I believe I am not the only one that believes this. I also added the "OT" to the subject line as a flag as is common on the net.

I don't know about the "Enterprise" lines history specifically, but since RH is moving only to that, these are word games. Sure the source in available in RPM format -- but that 's the whole point isn't it? The source is available in the RED HAT Package Format which requires one to purchase RH or go through a great deal of difficulty to extract them. Then the person has to be technically competent enough, and diligent enough to properly make use of the source. Then we can all merrily laugh at him for suffering with the "broken pieces" since he didn't pay for his free software. The hurdles keep getting higher. Yes... *technically* you folks are following the rules of the GPL, but you clearly do not intend to abide by the spirit of the GPL or the GNU Project anymore. We all see the early symptoms of the disease proprietary, and its secondary disorder of lock-in. You're not fooling anyone. Look, I honestly like you Jeremy, but I have to call crap for what it is: crap. It's getting deeper too. RH isn't the first company to behave this way, but some of us felt RH would always be the last company to act this way. I'm very disappointed that we were wrong. I hope RH changes before it is too late, but I fear it has already progressed too much on this course. You guys were the best and the brightest -- the flagship. Now you folks are spitting on the very folks who promoted you to being the de-facto standard. It is a pity. There are obviously fools at the helm. You will be mourned. -- Thomas Corriher _______________________________________________ Redhat-migration-list mailing list Redhat-migration-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-migration-list _______________________________________________ Redhat-migration-list mailing list Redhat-migration-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-migration-list
