| wow, i wonder if he took the money and ran?

| distro's should have a trust set up for the funds, and proper procedure to spend them (not allowing a grab and run)
| Shocking it happened to this distro.

I'll be sad if CentOS folds.  I use it.

On the other hand, there are a lot of other distros around, and we do
have the source code.  That's probably enough security.

Imagine if we used a single source OS and then the provider decided
not to offer it any more.  Like, say, Windows XP.
