I think the RedHat CentOS relationship is mutually beneficial. We get a kick
ass distro for only the cost of the work involved, and they get lots of bug
fixes, and bug reports with very detailed reproduction steps. They also get a
very large base of potential users when businesses move up to wanting/needing
support. Replace a few rpm's and you have a RedHat system ready for a paid
support contract.

And where would Oracle's unbreakable linux be if CentOS hadn't done most of
the heavy lifting first?
