While Redhat did not handle this situation well you are also being very unfair to them. Why would they waste their time trying to contribute to a dead project? If I see that patches do not get merged and that bug reports go unanswered I will not bother doing anything because I know my time will be wasted, and I do not fault RedHat for doing the same.

What they should have done is tried to reach out to you before forking.

Unfair in what way?

They included in RHEL and sold it as part of their product when it suited them, and now they have replaced it because it suited them. That's fine, I don't have to agree.
