 Orbital Sander writes "Received a missive this morning from the Red Hat
 Network, stating that they will [0]discontinue maintenance on Red Hat
 Linux 7.x and 8.0 by the end of 2003, and on Red Hat 9.0 by the end of
 April, 2004. And, more ominously: 'Red Hat does not plan to release
 another product in the Red Hat Linux line.' [The [1]full text of the
 email is on Newsforge.] Kind of the end of an era, and the new king has
 already been appointed: Red Hat Linux is dead! Long live Red Hat
 Enterprise Linux! Looks like they realized that only their support
 contract-based version of the product was [2]making them any money."
 Readers also note that Red Hat is pointing users to the free [3]Fedora
 Project.
