- Keep or merge, but leaning keep for article balance purposes. The PROD was contested at the time (leading to a unilateral redirect to an inappropriate target, which is what landed us at RfD) because of this project's important role in the history of another. While Linux distros are not really my field and accordingly I am not as qualified to interpret their sources as someone who is, I would be unsurprised if the coverage for a stand-alone article exists in the context of "things that discuss the other project, but give heavy discussion of the history of this". If it doesn't, then this article can be merged to CentOS, the successor of the distro -- but I have some concerns about the degree to which the content of this article can be balanced in the other without making it overlong, and dislike merges that are really redirects with a couple extra words, so I'd prefer to keep where possible.
