Again, the problem is not so much if it works and works happily under
RHEL/CentOS, but the QA/QC expected of a commercial product. Me, I am
happy to have the no-cost RHEL licence, a copy of the distro and some
RedHat freebies (come on, there has to be something!), but would be
looking at some form of indemnification from RH should something get
through which causes problems for the commercial client. I don't mind
carrying the can for stuff I do in FE, but would have qualms for the
RHEL.

TTFN
