CentOS Stream gitlab default branch change
by Troy Dawson 04 Oct '24

04 Oct '24

As of a couple days ago, some of you might have noticed that the default branch for all RPM packages on CentOS Stream Gitlab [1] has been changed to “c10s”. This was the result of extensive discussion in CS-1985 [2] where we came to the decision that we needed to have a consistent default branch across the package set and that it should always track the latest Y-stream project. We put together the tooling for this and executed it this week. [1] https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms [2] https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CS-1985

access to s390x arch for SIGs (looking for comments)
by Fabian Arrotin 27 Sep '24

27 Sep '24

It's not the first time that some SIGs members are reaching out to me to ask about s390x architecture access for CBS (https://cbs.centos.org) This time, it was on irc, in #centos-devel channel. I promised to open a public thread on devel list so that we can reach out to bigger audience (SIGs and project leaders). Myself, talking about the Infra SIG needs, I'd love to have access to s390x architecture, as my current plan includes building through local mock on a different infra, and then having to launch manual processes, as our infra packages are built / signed / distributed like every other SIG, but so lacking s390x support. During that discussion on the centos-devel irc channel earlier today, someone mentioned https://openmainframeproject.org/news/developer-resources-for-linux-on-s390… Do you think (as SIGs) that it would be beneficial to eventually engage ? But also searching for CentOS Board members' opinion/thought on this first, as I don't want to start engaging with IBM through that public process if there is another way :) That reminds me this Fedora thread about similar request : https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure/issue/11122 Opinions ? Thoughts ? -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | @arrfab[@fosstodon.org]

CentOS Showcase, Nov 4
by Shaun McCance 25 Sep '24

25 Sep '24

Hi folks, Since we consolidated our in-person events to the one CentOS Connect each year at FOSDEM, there's been a lot of demand to bring back virtual events to show things off throughout the year. On November 4, we're going to host our first CentOS Showcase. This is a half-day virtual event, featuring short 20-minute talks where you can show off what you've been working on in CentOS. https://cfp.fedoraproject.org/centos-showcase-2024-11/ The CFP and registration are open. We're testing out new platforms as we do this, so please let us know if there are problems. We hope to run these virtual events 2-3 times per year going forward. We're very interested in your feedback on the format so we can improve in the future. Thanks, Shaun

centpkg-sig - option for both git repos
by Troy Dawson 17 Sep '24

17 Sep '24

Currently centpkg-sig is configured to point to git.centos.org and that is great for those SIG's that use that. But more and more SIG's are using gitlab.com/CentOS. I sent out an email a couple months ago when this pull request came in[1] and found out that some SIG's were using git.centos.org. But I've had another ping about changing the default, and it got me thinking about somehow having two defaults. I'm still thinking about how we could do that, but I'm curious about how much the CentOS SIG's would want this? There are a couple ways to do it. A) have two configurations with two "binaries" centos-sig-pagure centos-sig-gitlab B) Have one set as the default, and the other as an option centos-sig centos-sig --gitlab C) Something else, like checking both places to see if the package is there. Sounds icky, but just an example of "something else" So I guess I have two questions: - Do the SIG's want this? - Does anyone have a good idea on how to do it?

Cloud SiG Meeting and Chair/Co-Chair Nominations and Elections
by Joel Capitao 13 Sep '24

13 Sep '24

Hi folks, It's been 2 years since I'm chairing the Cloud SiG, and I think it's time for me to step down and let another, or new, members of the SiG give a new momentum. So we would like to take nominations for the chair and co-chair roles. Please reply to this email with your self-nominations and nominations for other members of the SiG. If you are nominated by another member of the SiG please reply to this mail as well with your acceptance. You can also reply privately to Amy (spotz) in cc. If we have a quorum, we will hold elections during the next meeting (Oct 10). If a quorum is not met, we will ask for 1-2 volunteers and hold an election outside our regular meeting. Thank you, Joel

2024-09-11 - CentOS Public Board Meeting
by Thomas Oulevey 10 Sep '24

10 Sep '24

Hi Everyone, Our next board meeting will take place at 20:00 UTC tomorrow `date -d "2024-09-11 20:00 UTC"` If you would like to attend please send me an email to alphacc(a)centosproject.org ( please do not reply to @centos-devel or use another email address) and you will receive a link to a meeting room with a passcode, 1 hour before the meeting takes place. The agenda can be checked at (work in progress) : https://hackmd.io/@centosboard/S1wSrw320 As a reminder we will enforce few rules : * Wait to be recognized by the Chair before speaking * Respect the Chair when told your time to speak is over - this will allow us to remain on agenda, and complete the meetings in the allotted time * In the event that there are Board-confidential topics, these will be put at the end of the meeting, in Executive Session, and guests will be asked to leave. We hope to minimize these items, but they do sometimes happen. The most common scenarios in which this may happen are personnel issues, or information that Red Hat wishes to share with the Board, but is not yet public. * Muting of participants, or, in extreme situations, ejection from the meeting, is at the sole discretion of the Chair. * Meetings will be recorded, and published to YouTube (possibly with edits/redaction, as approved by the Directors). Thus, by joining the meeting you consent to have your presence at the meeting, and anything you say during the meeting, made public. I hope some of you can join. thanks, -- Thomas 'alphacc' Oulevey CentOS Board of Directors Secretary alphacc(a)centosproject.org

Minor Jira tweaks next week
by Brendan Conoboy 03 Sep '24

03 Sep '24

Hi folks, This is a quick note to let you know that some minor changes will be coming to Jira early next week. If you write JQL for fun, love dashboards, or otherwise enjoy recreational parsing, these might affect you. 1: Today RHEL CVE trackers are filed with a "Bug" issue type. Next week we'll start adding new issues with CVE-centric issue types. These include extra CVE-centric fields. 2: The Severity field's available values will be simplified down to just 4: Urgent, High, Medium, and Low. Values in existing issues will be remapped. This is probably a no-op for most people, but just in case, that's the plan! -- Brendan Conoboy / CASE & CPE / Red Hat, Inc.

CentOS Stream build infra outage (potential impact on SIGs)
by Fabian Arrotin 26 Aug '24

26 Aug '24

Due to internal scheduled maintenance on the CentOS Stream build infra, it will not be available/reachable this Friday August 30th (maintenance starting around 12:00am UTC) While it will not have any impact on CentOS Stream users (not using any service hosted in that infra), it can potentially impact some SIGs, depending on their koji/cbs tag(s) configuration. Normally SIGs are just using released repositories (aka what's available through mirror.stream.centos.org) but some SIGs requested to inherit CentOS Stream (9 and 10) buildroots repositories (to access some unreleased -devel pkgs or else) If you're relying on these buildroots, they'll be unavailable for some hours so you should plan accordingly and eventually just queue your pkgs build for after the maintenance window, or just retry failing builds due to some pkgs from the corresponding buildroots repositories not being reachable. Kind Regards, -- Fabian Arrotin The CentOS Project | https://www.centos.org gpg key: 17F3B7A1 | @arrfab[@fosstodon.org]
