Redhat Linux?
Hi,

I use linux and it is a great OS, I use Redhat Linux 9 and I was wondering are they going to update 9 or they'll be leaving that to the fedora project?

I would like a stable linux distro.

Thanks

Seems like they will terminate RHL in favour of Fedora as you can't even find the RH9 product page on redhat.com anymore.

I believe Linux isn't free anymore, I guess I'll be moving to FreeBSD or Slackware.

Any recommendation on which Free Linux Distro would be good for a production environment?

Thanks,

Linux not free anymore? I decline to agree.

RH's move from RHL->Fedora is a step to make it more community-driven and less proprietary.

And Debian has always remained free.

Check out this thread regarding Red Hats announcement regarding the Fedora Project. There are a couple of links that explain Red Hats new approach.

Linux wont cease being free anytime in the near future. As for RedHat, the fedora project is the new name for the same old red hat linux, they are using this to get the community more involved, and to sell more copies of red hat enterprise linux.
