OpenELA - Open Enterprise Linux Association

An anti-RedHat collaboration between SUSE, Oracle, CIQ/Rocky - but not AlmaLinux?

Were they invited and turned it down, or were they excluded? (That's a question any competent journalist would ask; it hasn't been done by the two articles I've seen so far.)

Whichever idiot made the three-page website (https://openela.org) decided to require CloudFlare JavaScript before any content displays, because presumably it's essential to have a fade transition with an animated loader between pages because... well, I'm sure they think there's a good reason for it.

Fortunately, the content is actually there - one can use uBlock Origin to block JS and Block Element on the <div id="preloader"> and get a snappier site, (not that there's much there).

Oh, and in-line with their claim to "always act in the best interests of the open source community", their "how to join" section is promoting the proprietary Slack software, instead of the numerous Open Source options.

Oh well, if nothing else it might be interesting to see how Red Hat react to this.
