No. What is being said are kerb-side gossip, without a clear
statement of underlying fact and a knowledgable analysis of
the issues involved.

Red Hat maintains a open, anonymous FTP mirror of its GPL'd
software, sources and binaries, and updates, free for all
comers, and more besides. Use and enjoy, commercially or
personally, as much as you wish, under the GPL.

They do NOT wish you to represent _YOU_ are Red Hat or Red Hat
authorized, if you are not in an arrangement which permits
them to ensure the quality of the services, and the protection
of their Trademarks and Copyrights.
