"not hot on community efforts"?  What is that supposed to mean?  I've
been working with Red Hat people for years, and they've been very
supportive of the community from what I've seen.  They pay people to sit
on irc.openprojects.net and help people with Red Hat questions, host
tons of mailing lists, and generally have helpful people replying to
questions (occasionally some tempers get riled, but they're just
human!).  I'd love to know your specific gripes...

What's wrong with up2date?  I suppose you don't like apt either, huh?  
:-)
