OpenELA is a trade association formed [1]by Oracle, CiQ and SUSE to make sure that Enterprise linux source code is available to the Linux community. It is not a fork, but a response to RedHat putting Enterprise Linux source code behind a paywall [2]and legal agreement that no longer allows users to freely distribute the source code. OpenELA is not a Linux Distribution, but is intended as a location for all the source code to build an Enterprise Linux system.
