Very strange seeing Oracle try and play the “good guy”, I am 100% sure if they could find a way to convince anyone other than there existing customers to run their distro they would be finding ways to extract extra cash out of the deal anyway they could.

Both IBM and Oracle are on my “do no buy” vendor list due to horrible licensing practices and costs.
