OK. If RedHat would be in any way related, don't you think they would love
to have their name mentioned somewhere? It is "derived from".

It is NOT related _with_ RedHat.

If you want to make an OS dericved from a prominent North American
Enterprices (Novell in this case) please go ahead, but don't hold your
breath for support from them.

if I recall correctly, RedHat even has forbidden them by trial to use
the name RedHat. That is, in my eyes, very telling how that relation is
going.
