RH is the 800-pound gorilla of the Linux world. They employ a sizeable portion of the developers working on various projects within the Linux ecosystem.

Canonical revenue is 67 million according to wikipedia, by contrast Red Hat is 1.5 billion. That is 3 extra zeros (and even then it is almost 1/100 of Microsoft's revenue).

There's plenty of Intel people involved as well, but their goals are mostly aligned.

Or at least don't clash. Intel is mostly involved on the hardware end. The biggest clash is perhaps Oracle, as they forked RHEL some years back. but i think that is more about shoring up a silo around their database business, rather than getting involved in the general workstation and server business.

But that is a recent move, while RH has been in the Linux development effort for some time.
