Red Hat launches Open Source Channel Alliance

[ Thanks to smk for this link. ]

"What Red Hat has done with this new Alliance is create its own open source channel with SYNNEX which is a big play in my view that could further push Red Hat Linux into the mainstream of IT. Red Hat has tried its own channel type effort in the past, notably the Red Hat Exchange (RHX). The SYNNEX deal is a little different because Red Hat is leaning on them and their distribution to help push open source further."
