Like the previous poster said, now that RedHat has made its move,
small
businesses (like mine) and *.edu are taking it up the ass. That's pretty
much life and I'm willing to accept that without complaint. RedHat needs
to be reminded though that it's in poor taste to throw it back in our
faces telling us to "pay up or shut up".
Why is there so much noise about this *now* ?

I believe people had more than one year to do something about this.
Fedora is free($$$$, sources and binaries), if you need longer lifetime
is because you are going to *win money* with it. And Red Hat wants
his part, this is capitalism. If you hate it, sorry URSS was going down :-)
Red Hat sells products/services. If you like it, pay for it.
If you hate it, change you to another distribution.
Other thing is on *.edu, *.org and nonprofit organizations *without
lucrative aims/projects*
I believe Red Hat _should relax_ RHEL license or doing lower prices.
Something like Free Solaris Binary License Program
