Re: [Fwd: [WBEL-devel] Rebuilt Progeny RPMs for RHL 7.2/7.3/8.0]

Things like that will probably make sure progeny makes no effort to
continue the service.

Besides which it does actually violate the SLA that the subscribers
agree to so whoever chooses to provide updates in this way can be cut
off from updates from Progeny.

The same is true for whitebox Linux.

"Why, of course, the people don't want war... Voice or no voice, the

have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the
pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It
