There's somebody who is providing a subscription maintenance service. Let me
look... yes, here's the announcement:

Progeny Transition Service

NEW! Support added for versions 8.0 & 9
Beginning January 1, 2004, Progeny will offer software updates for users of
Red HatR LinuxR 7.2, 7.3, 8.0, and 9. This service is based on Progeny's
Platform Services technology and will provide a flexible migration path for
RHL subscribers.

Progeny Transition Service includes the following features:

Subscribers have access to a software repository containing security
updates.
Patches will also be available via NovellR's XimianR Red Carpet EnterpriseT
version 2.0.
Subscribers will be notified of security vulnerabilities and available
patches.
Pricing is $5 per machine per month; or a flat rate of $2,500 per month for
unlimited machines.
Quotes for custom platform services are available.
Limited to x86 support.
This service is part of Progeny's Platform Services.

No clue if it's still being offered or how well it works...
