I don't buy into this 'companies must give out everything for free,
and if we need support, we'll pay for it'. Organizations given this
option, more often than not, choose not to take the support option for
*some* invented excuse, which usually includes 'well I can't
afford
the minimum support package that you offer, but I do wish I had
support', or in your case, 'well I can't afford the minimum support
package that you offer, but I do wish I had the binaries'...
I'm afraid that's just a fact of life in the .edu community. As i said,
the school i volunteer for can't even afford the RHL basic subscription.
I think it is perfectly reasonable for the open source community to
work on something like Fedora, get Fedora for free (not for free, when
you look at it this way), and leave RHEL for the user base that
requires support and a longer release cycle.
My point was that some people need a longer release cycle without
support.
Here's my explanation of what i'm looking for:
