Red Hat announced yesterday that the sources for RHEL will no longer be accessible from git.centos.org. This effectively locks their source changes behind a subscription to RHEL, that costs money.
The more questionable issue though is their suggestion that they will cancel support agreements and dev accounts that redistribute their code. That seems like it’s skirting very close to violation of the letter of the GPL. It shits all over the spirit of it.
Good point, the right to redistribute is one of the basis of opensource.
