Simple, they will release it for RHEL.  That was part of the reason for
creating RHEL, to provide third-parties with a long-life stable platform
to support.  Would you rather have to check your product every 6 months
for compatibility, or every 2 years?  And if it doesn't work, would you
rather have 2-3 months to make it work (because the base is going
unsupported) or 3 years?
