RedHat forks OpenSSH?

[listz at hate.cx]

No, I am using the tarball directly from the OpenSSH group, from 
ftp.openbsd.org. I understand that you don't want to support RedHat's 
modifications to the source, but I am using the source directly from OpenSSH on 
a RedHat system. Does that mean the list is unwilling to hear my questions 
(should one arise)?
