Major Linux Distributors Announce Efforts To Maintain RHEL Compatibility After Code Changes

Red Hat has made controversial changes to how RHEL source code is accessed, prompting backlash.
Oracle, SUSE, AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux are creating new RHEL-compatible forks and distributions.
SUSE is investing $10 million into an RHEL fork and collaborating with other distributors.
Oracle has offered jobs to RHEL engineers and positioned itself as championing Linux open source principles.
The groups argue Red Hat is limiting GPLv2 rights and trying to hinder competition from alternative distributions.
