I also see that Red Hat would appreciate CentOS but may not actively
provide helping hands.
One major contribution CentOS makes is to help maintain the Red Hat
ecosystem as was pointed out by others. If it was not for CentOS, I
would not have my current RHEL entitlement. :-)
Real "problem" with recent release troubles with CentOS is that some
(or many?) are migrating to Ubuntu/Debian rather than to other RHEL
clones, which might eventually hurt the entire Red Hat community. See
