#Fedora is basically #RedHat - #Developer branch...
Red Hat certainly contributes greatly to Fedora in other ways, but direct maintenance of a specific package or set of packages is not a reliable indicator of Red Hat's overall investment. Fedora is going to be just fine.
I've been seeing lots of "the sky is falling" takes around Red Hat pulling out of LibreOffice RPM maintenance in Fedora. Here's a reality check: the vast majority of packages in Fedora are not maintained in an official capacity (i.e. part of their job) by Hatters. That's because only a small subset (~10%) of Fedora packages make it into RHEL. Currently RHEL 9 has 6,501 RPMs (from 2,393 SRPMs), while Fedora 38 has 60,807 RPMs (from 23,281 SRPMs).

#RedHat dropping support for #LibreOffice
https://lwn.net/Articles/933525/
@cassidy @LWN There is a lot to see here: who will maintain and support that Flatpak? Will RH clients still get paid support of it? What will happen to Caolán, David, and other #RedHat #LibreOffice developers?
Red Hat Stop Packaging LibreOffice as RPM for RHEL, Fedora - OMG! Linux
https://www.omglinux.com/red-hat-stop-packaging-libreoffice/
Let's put it across bluntly, what business does a userspace utility have in the server??? And RHEL is targeted and used in servers. Soo..
I am not sure about the #fedora elimination but for #RHEL it is fine.
The Linux community used to complain about Ubuntu and its development around snapd. Well, Red Hat, in fact, does the same thing. The difference is that flatpak has a good reputation and is not slow. Although, the trend goes on. I can see something like "The Arch Way" of managing packages in the old-school manner as a movement within a decade! 😹
Ps. Last one is a joke, btw
#linux #flatpak #foss #redhat #fedora
https://www.omglinux.com/red-hat-stop-packaging-libreoffice/
Aquí hay dos cosas, una la veo bien y la otra, si es cierta, bastante mal.
Que #RHEL deje de suministrar #LibreOffice en formato RPM a través de sus repositorios para delegarlo en #Flatpak no lo veo mal.
Sin embargo, espero que esto no ponga fin a la contribución de #RedHat a LibreOffice, ya que la compañía es una de las partes que más aportan. https://www.muylinux.com/2023/06/02/red-hat-libreoffice-rpm/

Does anybody know if it’s possible to get #redhat to mark a cve as disputed? Or even to downgrade it?
Specifically, CVE-2020-15779 which Qualsys has decided to mark as a critical vulnerability and some IT Security people who don’t know what they are doing insist need to be “fixed” even though Red Hat refuses to make changes to the package even for RHEL 8.
https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2020-15778
Even NIST notes that it’s disputed
Interesting that "IBM becoming 'more comfortable' with open source" [1] is still an issue some 20+ years after investing US$1 billion to back the Linux movement [2].

My #Redhat followers and friends, my recent #JobHuntingWithIan news has me ending up in a place with Windows workstations (sob) and Redhat servers.
Should I play with @fedora, @centos or @rockylinux (or other) to start learning how Redhat does things different to Ubuntu?
huge shoutout to @RobertBohne@twitter.com and the rest of the #RedHat EMEA SSA team for their plain awesome set of automation to enable #OpenShift on the #Hetzner cloud. Will easily help reduce cloud spend and still provide all of the capabilities I need #FinOps #OpenShiftAnywhere
Selon le PDG de #RedHat les licenciements sont une chose saine qu'il faut faire de temps en temps.
C'est un manque de respect flagrant sa part à l'égard des #redhatters récemment licenciés non pas pour des raisons économiques ou stratégiques mais à cause de l'incompétence et de la cupidité des dirigeants de RedHat
Virer les patrons est une chose saine qu'il faut faire de temps en temps.

「 While I won’t be contributing as the Fedora Program Manager anymore, I was a Fedora contributor long before I joined Red Hat, and I’m not letting them take that away from me. I’ll still be around Fedora in ways that spark joy, although perhaps not much at first as I let my wounds heal 」

Rich Bowen on Talking To Management About Open Source:
"Doing this at #RedHat is easier because _in theory_ everyone understands open source"
Emphasis mine
I miss the #RedHat of a decade ago that saw #community investment as a valuable asset to double down on and not as a paper liability.
I'm confident that #Fedora will continue to thrive in spite of the damage done by upper management at #RedHat and #IBM because it's the community that drives Fedora's innovation. Unfortunately, Red Hat doesn't seem to see that "value" as much as the rest of the Fedora community, based on their recent lay offs of key Fedora and open source community members.
I'm continually amazed by the #Fedora community, but admittedly having trouble processing a certain mistrust for #RedHat right now in light of recent layoffs and comments from #IBM's CEO about replacing people with AI. I'm legit angry about the harm done to Fedora and the #opensource world by some clearly out of touch suits and grieved by the human cost of those decisions on people who most certainly did not deserve it.

Reflecting on an argument I've had with a #RedHat evangelist about the positive/negative contributions of that company to FOSS, I think I can summarize my position very well.
The point of view that it's all about how much FOSS is created, and how viable the wider industry sees it is insufficient.
The only point of view that matters is how broadly the needs of the entire FOSS community are represented.
It's the people, stupid.
In #Vancouver for #cdCon + #GitOpsCon and Open Source Summit North America (OSSNA). Feels good to be around other practitioners of #opensource and to re-affirm my passion in community building. #RedHat is a Platinum sponsor for OSSNA. Swing by and say hello if you’re around!
I didn't tell him I was going to do this, but I recently found out @quaid was impacted by the #RedHat layoffs. Karsten was a major part of my involvement in #Fedora, especially since I moved to California and was just getting started as a Fedora Ambassador back in 2009. Over the many years I've known him, I've got to see him thrive at bringing people into the #opensource world and fostering a sense of belonging and hospitality.

It seems the IBM induced layoffs that hit Red Hat have had an impact on OpenSource.doc. Quoting from the os.com mailing list:
"The Opensource.com website will remain live, and any articles already in the queue to get published will go live - but the website itself will go idle after that. So no new articles on Opensource.com"
so... yeah
