Evidently Oracle CEO Larry Ellison aims to make Red Hat a red smear in 
the road.

He's doing something he's been threatening to do since April and that's 
to use open source against Red Hat - which apparently ticked him off 
royally when it bought JBoss. He's going to poach Red Hat's Enterprise 
Linux (RHEL) operating system - 'cause that's allowed under open source 
rules - remove any Red Hat trademarks, Oracle-ize the thing, put fixes 
in it faster than you can say "Squish, go to God," and support it for 
way less than what Red Hat charges....
