Dear Simon,

Redhat making a big thing of "We'll soften the blow by not preventing
anyone continuing to re-package RHEL and distribute how they like" is
particularly disingenuous and annoying, since they can't. RHEL is built on
free software protected by licences. Mighty give of them to allow what is
legally mandatory, eh?
My thought exactly when I read the article. Red Hat have built a
towering citadel on foundations of free software, thus, anyone who is
let in gets to distribute keys to the gates.

Best wishes, Sebastian
