I've spent the last couple hours reading through various reactions to this
sudden paradigm shift, and they're overwhelmingly negative. Even the brazen
professionals and the hardcore guru admins who have seen it all add a little
"RIP CentOS" to their tweets, blog articles and other publications.
Only last month I held my yearly 101 class about Linux and Open Source at our
local university here in South France. We were talking about enterprise class
Linux - which isn't necessarily commercial Linux - and I remember explaining to
my students the choice of CentOS and the benefits of low-risk updates over an
extended period of ten years.
A colleague of mine - the most proficient admin I personally know - already
decided to move to Oracle Linux. And I'm currently considering it as an option.
Cheers from the sunny South of France,
Niki
