Red Hat announced yesterday that the sources for RHEL will no longer be accessible from git.centos.org. This effectively locks their source changes behind a subscription to RHEL, that costs money.

Opensource licenses typically doesn't require the software to be free, just that the source and modification be made available to users.

Making user pay to access both binaries and source is fair, as long as RedHat keep contributing code to upstream projects.
