Hi Folks,

It's time to have a look to the SIGs and the community needs for the
next version of the community build service(cbs). We would like to
request feedback and know if the different communities plan on using
modular builds, and what would be their timeline to be able to produce
C8 artifacts (rpms, imagefactory builds, etc...).


From CloudSIG, we'll need need to consume modules both at build and run times.

I've been doing some investigation on how using modularity may help us to improve our current delivery model and I'd say that the extra complexity to build modules is probably not worthy to replace our current workflow based on per-release tags and repos with release rpm packages to enable repos. This may change in future, but so far, I'd say we will not create modules.

 
As you know Koji is now used to build CentOS 8 [1], and is based on
the mbbox [2] distribution.

It makes sense for cbs.centos.org to follow this trend and be based on
the same templates.


This means we'll have a new koji instance for SIGs in CentOS8?
 
At the same time we needed to evaluate how and where we can deploy the
new Openshift based templates, and associated builders for different arches.

It's understood that the transition between both systems should be
smooth and do not impact your C6/C7 builds and release cycle. We will
plan accordingly.

Please let us know, if you have comments and/or new ideas.


Thanks,

Alfredo
