The main problem is that Oracle's open source track record speaks for itself.

Now they suddenly want to play "nice", and so they do it by forking a well respected, volunteer driven distro rather than simply contributing to it and helping streamline the security update process. And then they top it all off with a negative ad campaign.

I'm sorry, but you're still not getting it, Oracle.



Did Oracle fork CentOS?

I thought they just copied RHEL, exactly how CentOS & Scientific Linux did.
