RedHat is moving into the corporate world... what a surprise... they are actually trying to make money now. I hope only good happens, but we shall see.
BTW, I totally support what they are doing not only in the "right" to do it, but their "need" to do it, in order to pull in more revenue.
mobrien_12:
Well they can keep the use of their RedHat name if they want... but asking people to remove the name Redhat and meta tags from vendor websites sounds a bit extreme.
Stryker:
They yelled at me for selling a boxed version of redhat on ebay, i put it down to avoid anything. but still, it was all boxed up... that's what ebay's for.
solo:
can they sue you for selling something on ebay? I don't think so. Anyway, if the the redhat art package is released under GPL (i believe it is) then Redhat should not ask ppl to remove the redhat art package. The trademark thing yeah, I can see.
I support Redhat for defending it's trademarks. But I think they are a bit wrong for the ebay thing...
