    *sigh* Do I have to go abandon Fedora now too? I really hope they don’t pull a CentOS on that one

      I highly doubt this would affect Fedora. Thankfully, it’s community driven and self-goverened so Red Hat execs can’t go and tell them what to do. (Though I don’t know how many ties the Fedora council had to Red Hat)

        All of Fedora’s funding and IP comes from and belongs to Red Hat, this would be very persuasive. At least openSUSE has more sponsors than just SUSE.

      They already laid off the Fedora Program Manager back in May.

      IBM is closing off Red Hat to bleed it dry.

      Let’s wait and see, what it actually means for Fedora. The common parts are still open source, most probably GPL, I would assume anything wihout sources freely available wouldn’t be in Fedora, anyway? So, mainly Fedora remains available the same it always has, but might not be as strictly aligned with RHat linux anymore?
