You don't have to use Red Hat's products or code if you don't want to. There are plenty of competitors that might suit your needs and desires better.

Oh, I don't? This is news.

So to be clear, you're saying that you've spoken to the management at my company and convinced them to switch away from redhat?

If you could post a link to a copy of the email from the higher-ups, just so I have it in writing, that'd be rad. Thanks! :)
