Red Hat cutting back RHEL source availability
Hacker News
What does this mean for Alma and Rocky? My understanding is that they're basically source clones of RHEL with all branding changes.
The devs could buy a RHEL license and get the sources, which are still under free license, that way.
Maybe, but if the license contract terms prohibit redistribution RedHat could just terminate the agreement. They couldn’t stop you from doing it the first time, but you’d be blocked off on that account.
