So, what about redistribution of copies?
learn the difference between trademarks and software licences
So, if you have a license that says "the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License," and " You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein", it really means that you can add something that adds restrictions.
I could use debian, but then I'd have to learn to type apt-get instead
of rpm. I'd prefer to continue using the commands that Red Hat baited us with
so learn it or shut up with your Redhat hate for no reason
I have my reason. You don't have to like it.
For me Redhat and CentOS have their place, together in the same
environment:
RedHat --> Production Systems, with paid-for support, something goes wrong then I have some commercial comeback to get it fixed. High change control environment.
CentOS --> QA, Development and Test Systems, and sometimes, non-critical infrastructure, community support, more roll-your-own fixes and workarounds. Less change control.
You can also purchase production support for CentOS through OpenLogic. Roll your own bug fixes aren't necessarily bad, especially when you are able to send them upstream so they benefit everyone.
