RHEL's Source Code Access Change Is Causing Issues For CentOS SIGs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I immediately called this after IBM bought Redhat. Its the same story that always happens: large company buys out other large company and runs it into the ground.
Wouldn't say always. Here in Canada our telecoms have a great time buying out competitors, making a ton of money, and fucking over customers. The last one was Rogers' acquisition of Shaw, Shaw being huge and Rogers being fucking massive.
I still can't believe that deal was allowed to go through.
