Red Hat and Symantec announced Thursday the bundling of two hosted server security offerings for small and medium-size businesses. The suites, Secure Server Host and Secure Server Host for Applications, are designed to provide pre-configured or custom configured, behavior-based intrusion protection and detection for hosted servers.
The companies are bundling Symantec Critical System Protection with Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Red Hat Application Stack. Red Hat and Symantec will begin distributing these suites to its channel partners beginning this month.
That's not true. The current GPLv3 draft still has loopholes. Not to mention if you have ever read the GNU Manifesto or seen videos of Stallman's Open Source speeches, you'd noticed that he's not out to make everything free. He believes that through support people can make money, as long as they obey by one rule, giving the source back. You don't have to give the source code out if used internally. Red Hat is mainly focused around support, while Symmantec is focused on security software. There's nothing wrong with building commercial software on top of GNU. It's preferable to use LGPL though as some would argue ownership of IP due to header infection via GPLv2 software. If the GPLv3 disallows all commercial activity, which won't ever be ratified, as open source projects depend on some commercial support, then they can fork the latest GPLv2 projects not upgraded by the perpetual license. Forking would be the solution abeit a bad one which I strongly believe has gone out of control. That's one reason I personally don't found my business completely on open-source software, too many unsupported and undocumented forks to chose from.
