That would be a question for IBM.
You could also look at RHN Satellite (costs money) or Spacewalk, the more "bleeding edge" but free implementation of RHN Satellite. You will still need subscriptions, but you can create channels for administration.
You could also use plain cobbler/chef/puppet to manage patches if you like.
