Kevin’s note is a great summary.  FWIW, years ago when I worked for IBM (early 
2000’s) we met with RedHat.  During the introductions someone from IBM referred 
to them as an Open Source company.  One of the RedHat execs corrected them and 
said, “We are a commercial software company that uses open source to create our 
products and we also contribute back to open source.”  I thought that was a 
good clarification of the RedHat business model.
