ummm, maybe you didn't know but the Redhat 7.3 CD .isos are *not* gpl, they are trying to do nasty things to restrict people selling them on cheap. Although user groups are still allowed to distribute them. The
Such restriction are likely to fall foul of various EU directives as well as UK 'unfair restraint of trade' provisions.
situation is not clear atm, but I was told this on good authority the other day. Go and look at http://www.linuxemporium.co.uk and try and work out why there is no mention of 7.3 on cheap CDs and why the Redhat name has a (R) logo after it.....
