Even better title: Rocky will take the RHEL work and rebrand and sell the boards at a discount from China and claim a win and that they're being attacked by IBM.

Man some of y'all really have beef with Rocky...

Because their model is the absolute laziest possible one.

Yes, because the idea of iterate and claim ownership is dishonest and lazy at best.

We've actually been working with Fedora and RH on RISC-V for over a year now :)

Still, past sins and all that. Not too mention the model and the directions from those at the top.

Great I always applaud contributions and I want to encourage it. But please see the damage done by some quite senior persons on the project and please distance yourselves from them.

I suggest you try and measure yourself using that big stick you're holding up to other people.

As one of the founders of the project, I don't think I'll distance myself from myself.

Then why does this article give "special thanks" to Fedora, but not Red Hat? Or point out the fact that the vast majority of the Fedora RISC-V porting work is being done by Red Hat employees?
