For those who had forgotten, Oracle provides Linux support. It’s called “Unbreakable Linux.”

Most of you stopped thinking about it long ago, but for those who didn’t, Oracle’s chief corporate architect, Edward Screven decided to remind everyone. Edward is a huge fan of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. So much so, in fact, that he wants the industry to rally around the Red Hat flag as the Linux standard.

The hitch? He’s willing to take money from Red Hat to assist in the effort, but give totally nothing back. Just the sort of person you’d want in your community, right? Public Parasite Number One?

This has long been Oracle’s problem with its Unbreakable Linux program. Not only has it not been very successful (according to two inside sources affiliated with the program with whom I recently spoke), but by its very design it hurts the party investing the resources to make the RHEL distribution solid in the first place.

Screven states it’s all about providing a superior RHEL experience for the customer:
