Red Hat's inverse-acquihire of CentOS makes sense
Red Hat and the CentOS project join forces, says the Red Hat official news release, “to accelerate community adoption and innovation for next-generation open source projects”. CentOS’s own announcement focuses on the new governance and long-term sustainability for the project with Red Hat sponsoring build processes and employing a number of core CentOS team members. The Red Hat plan for CentOS seems to be about having CentOS as the baseline platform for working with other communities on stuff like OpenStack, Gluster and OpenShift Origin.
