Coincidence. The timing of the announcement is such that the IBM purchase could have nothing to do with it, certain headlines notwithstanding. Given how bad KDE is on RHEL (RHEL 7 is still on KDE4) having the Fedora KDE sig provide an up to date version for RHEL 8 via EPEL is likely a better option anyway. >Centos support will probably be dropped completely maybe even extinguished. Time will tell, though a) it would be a bad move and b) unless CentOS was on the verge of collapse prior to being absorbed by RH it would likely just rebirth itself as an independent project again though perhaps needing a new name. >I though Fedora was killed of a couple years ago after version 7. Red Hat has never (publicly at least) pondered killing Fedora and still continues to invest significantly into it. Of the 2 Fedora is likely more vulnerable because its utility to a server version of RHEL isn't as clear and it is unlikely that it would survive without the funding (direct and indirect) of Red Hat. _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
