Before we get too reactionary here, it could make sense to have people focus on the CentOS stream codebase for upstream dev, instead of Redhat having to manage upstreamed code targeting all the different releases of RHEL no?
And can’t Rocky Linux and Alma Linux just simply get source code via the partner program? Or does this change prevent them from doing so? You’d think that Redhat would want projects like Rocky and Alma around as a taste-testing lure for RHEL, considering that Redhat makes their money on support rather than RHEL itself.
RedHat already has no-cost RHEL licenses. The disadvantage is that it’s necessary to create a developer account, and one account only supports 16 devices.
