R for various ports of linux

To all:

I currently download the R binaries for Redhat 7.x Linux.

There is considerable turmoil in the vendors of Linux. Redhat 
apparently is changing it's business model to paid versions.

This might motivate my department to use a different vendor of Linux.

Is there anything predictable about which vendors/versions of Linux 
will have R binaries in the future?

I hadn't really given it much thought. I suppose I shall switch to
creating RPMS for Fedora, since there won't be a Red Hat Linux 10. Don't
hold your breath for RPMS for the Enterprise Version of Red Hat unless
we (IARC) can negotiate a sweet licensing deal.

I don't think Red Hat are abandoning poor acadamic users. They just
aren't making money out of their boxed set, so they're replacing it with
Fedora.
