Even if RH has technically very crude Linux products (SUSE is barely better that way and I do know distros that work just so much better for us), I don't recommend SUSE since last autumn and hope that Red Hat will stand its ground against an ugly racketeer. > While they might violate some NDAs I think it would be great

Unfortunately, that's probably a bad idea. Microsoft no doubt insisted on NDAs, and we don't Red Hat tied up in a massive lawsuit that will accomplish little; MS no doubt can assert (legitimately or not) other software patents against GNU/Linux. “Red Hat would be a savior to the industry if they would just leak these details to the public.” Unfortunately, that’s probably a bad idea.
