Hi,

I'm not actually looking for free.
I'd gladly support the efforts of our "prominent North American Enterprise
Linux vendor"
with what little I have if their offers wouldn't be so ridiculously
expensive.
I hope the situation may change now with Oracle in direct competition with
RH
for RH and RH-based distros user base. BTW Oracle offers installable
binaries for free.
I didn't get into details yet but this sounds like a viable alternative.
