i don't know about connectiva, but the other three companies have had
poor track records supporting free software. caldera's ransom love has
bemoaned free software in the past. suse has several non-free bits -
i think yast is still not free. and turbo linux has not released it's
clustering code afaik.
i dunno, no matter how one feels about redhat, their commitment to free
software has been rather consistent.
