Red Hat's commitments to the open source projects it works on from linux, to kubernetes, to java, and many others will remain unchanged.

Without a timeframe, that statement is worthless.

And that timeframe might be shorter than you'd think. My guess would be "days".

Any evidence to back up your guess, or is it just the hunch of some dude on the internet?

Unless those commitments are in the form of formal contracts, written down, then I would not place a great deal of faith in them. Unless they have legal obligations to abide by them, then IBM don't need to keep them.
I hope so, but how will IBM make money then?
Red Hat is already making money with the current business model.
