Besides it is a license issue, is it technically possible?
And if it is a license problem how would they suppress it?
It is just a question not an attack or some propaganda about
illegal/misuse of RHN.

I mean: isn't the same being used for CentOS?
One has can access all Red Hat updates but can use them a little bit
repackaged for CentOS ? Hence..same we use Spacewalk instead of
Satellite server?

Kind regards and chill out.
