I find it funny (and sad at the same time) that the same people who just
a year ago would have been shouting Red Hat at the top of their lungs
had someone mentioned Microsoft, are so willing to 'jump ship' now. So
Red Hat is going to charge now...they're a business!!! I saw one email
on here where someone complained that if you didn't buy a version of WS
which came with <insert app here>, you couldn't download the rpm from
Red Hat, and that this wasn't right because RH didn't make the software,
just packaged it in a nice RPM. Guess some people don't realize how
nasty compiling from source (not source RPM's mind you) can be.
