	No, the difference is actually quite small unless you're looking
	for material to argue over.

	No, no help at all.

	100% irrelevant to CentOS or this thread.

	The project itself doesn't seem to have an issue with funding,
	at least no issues I can spot in any public venue, so why do
	*you*, an outsider and apparently non-contributor, have such an
	issue?  I don't get it.  You seem to think that money is the end
	all be all for OSS.  I would suggest that's a mindset you may
	wish to change as money doesn't drive OSS.
