Hi,
Against better judgment, I feel compelled to rejoin this thread for one last
post.

You obviously have not been reading this thread too closely. Here let me help
you with the highlights.
For the purposes of this thread:
a. Facts are of no importance. To participate in here does not require to
actually use/install/own RHEL nor can you be bothered to actually take the time
to read the licenses under question.
b. What is of the utmost importance however, is a rabid belief in some sort of
philosophy. This philosophy would not be based on sound reasoning or Facts (See
(a) above), but on personal bias.
c. The aim here is to keep this thread alive by asserting forcefully the said
beliefs under the guise of trying to learn something.
d. While asserting these beliefs, it is also important to assert one's right to
forcefully assert.
I am sure others could add to this summarizing of the thread, and would do so
even under the threat of being forced to write some foss code or meet govt.
officials.
cheers,
- steve
