When Oracle bought Sun Microsystems, it demonstrated it didn't know how to interact with open source communities. The Hudson -> Jenkins fork is probably the most famous where Oracle thought they could dictate where teams would collaborate. The bullying tone Oracle took made it clear they viewed the community as employees who should do as they are told.
To me this kind of fumble shows people in the Red Hat side are suffering the same issue, they don't understand they manage an ecosystem. Ironically if Oracle, Alma and Rocky work together they stand a good chance of owning that community.
