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 will say from business perspective, Red Hat already give offer to anyone.. And it's centos stream code, you can rebuilt it as same as RHEL, and it's open source. And it's GPL...

So let it be like that, and with Almalinux working together, everything will be stronger than ever.. At least CIQ can suck up their contract, that resold Red Hat code and never support upstream ever.. And stole about 30% of RHEL corporate market with cheap and no labor cost.. So whatever...
