Sure, but it's IBM's _commercial_ distro.

It is also 100% open source.

It's also not 100% Kubernetes compatible even if it passes the conformance check by disabling security.

Can you provide a reference to this?

Reference for what exactly? It's obvious that it's not 100% compatible because many software packages for Kubernetes don't run unmodified on OpenShift. For the claim about the conformance test see https://github.com/openshift/origin/blob/master/test/extended/conformance-k8s.sh

Not obvious to me. If a distribution of Kurbnetes passes all conformance tests, I would consider it compatible. If not, that would be a failure in the conformance tests by definition
