 Maybe they would, but there is no content on the Centos wiki on the 
 commercial support page.  Considering the allegations of mishandling
 of funds, I doubt any organization would donate directly Centos
 at this time.

 I'm not trying to be a pest about that commercial support page, but
 it is frustrating.  I know the team said they would bring it up at the
 next dev meeting, but I have no idea when that is/was and what may
 have happened.



   

support as in buy a RHEL license

you seem confused.

there is no way I am going to let the project get into commercial 
endorsement program without a proper mapped out process that feeds back 
into both ends, has some audit-able process  and directly works for the 
users, and not the vendors. With the past scenario that has not been 
possible to establish, but there is hope that this starts chaning in the 
future. And while it is in the pipeline, commercial support endorsement 
is *not* in the top priorities at the moment, there are other things 
that we need to do first.

If you expect things to be different, you dont understand what we are 
trying to do here.
