Better IBM than Oracle. IBM had Linux in their attention for a

Linux architecture. This is an advantage for existing IBM users, so I
think they will not try to shut down open alternatives in databases and
management, at least when the "compatibility buffer" is enough.
And RHEL devs will probably not wear oversleeves like these old-timer
accountants IBM is traditionally associated with :).
