I’m curious about what you think on how it will affect the Linux community and distros (especially RHEL based distros like Fedora or Rocky).

Someone enlighten me. What are we talking about? The whole distro? Isn’t almost all of it GNU stuff under GPL or similar licenses?
Or is it just about some in-house made RH applications and patches done without any collaboration from outside people?
I don’t get it how a Linux-based project can go closed-source after ~30 years.
Ed: Oh ok so I guess they’re just closing their own fork repos to outsiders? That’s quite a different thing than “closed source”, dammit
To comply with GPL, RedHat simply has to provide source code to anyone they provide binaries to.
Yea, so why is everyone misrepresenting these news so damn hard? I’d think people who report on Linux would understand the core basics of GPL.
