I thought that have been doing that since the AOL deal last year?
It had been available on the RHN for awhile, in the unchanged/original form.
Unless I was mistaken, the deal was that AOL would allow Red Hat to
GPL it after an undisclosed number of sales had occurred _or_ by April 30,
2005, whichever came first.
The new FDS and RHDS releases are just more updated/integrated releases
with the Red Hat product line. E.g., more integrated SASL/Kerberos
integration with Red Hat's offerings out-of-the-box. Previously there was
a lot of post-install work to get Kerberos working via GSSAPI.
