either you or I are missing something here.
downloadable != maintainable.
besides Oracle's offering does not get the vendor endorsement that
CentOS does mostly due to the fact that they use a different toolchain
than rhel and they have a different patchset. Vendor and platform
endorsement on oracle's offering was not even into double digits a few
months back, whereas rhel ( and therefore centos's ) was into 4 digits.
