> Oracle has also publicly continued to commit to keeping “…the binaries and source code for that distribution publicly and freely available”. At this point their distribution has been around for 17 years, and they’ve never tried to restrict access to their source code in that time.

I’ll be impressed when they open source Oracle DB and let Microsoft fork it and sell support for it. It’s pretty easy to commit to “open source” a copy of RHEL. Especially when linux isn’t core to their business but a bait and switch to get their customers on Oracle’s platform.
