      Meh, how’s this different from RH?

      It took Canonical about four times as long (twenty years vs five) to start doing this.

      Dissatisfaction with RedHat’s introduction of RHN (in 2000) was arguably a significant factor contributing to Ubuntu’s rapid growth when it was first released (in 2004).

        I would go so far as to say it was THE key factor to Ubuntu’s initial success in 2004ish.
