"... (more or less) RedHat's own product?" Without really trying to diminish Red Hat's own contributions to the community nor their own in-house development efforts I'd have to consider it "less" their own product and "more" the product of the open source community at large. So Oracle can proceed with a clear conscience (as much as any corporation can be described as having a conscience) so long as they contribute back to the community at large and abide by the licenses, trademark rules, etc. (Yeah, I know they are playing out their own games ... they are being kind to Red Hat and there's probably a lot of back room politics, knee-biting and back stabbing going on. That's between them and Red Hat and we can pick sides or choose to be neutral or even to condemn them both).
