One can only hope. Certainly the ability to get RHEL and copy it for nothing would be nice. Certainly from a testing standpoint. However I doubt you'll be able to get updates (errata) fro nothing which makes it pretty worthless. If you want a stable free Linux for servers use Debian. If you don't mind paying for RHN then use RHEL. Regards On Sat, 2003-08-23 at 10:57, Craig Box wrote:

While the article is short on information, it inspires me with hope that due to Red Hat Inc's new position on 'only OSS software in their distribution' that the entirety of RHEL 3 will fall under the GPL and it will be copyable for those who want the stable platform but don't want commercial support.
