"It doesnt mean redhat is proprietary by any means. just that it got certified by assuring ABI compatibility and lifecycle guarantees. btw novell or anyone can do that same if they want it."
Not necessarily saying it is proprietary. But what I AM saying is that vendor lockin is just as much a fact of life in the Linux world as it is in the Solaris world or Windows world. The reason is that you can't get any support for your apps unless you are running Red hat. And support is important in an enterprise environment.
