- SIG Repositories: builds of the kernel, qemu-kvm, and libvirt containing the latest upstream-bound patches.
Would it be possible to make it a SIG requirement to reach out to relevant RHEL Product Owners before the scope is extended to additional components?
Please no. That turns the relationship upside down and invalidates the idea that CentOS is supposed to be a community upstream venue.
As an example, CentOS Hyperscale has in the past and will in the future built virtualization components, and we build kernels today. There's no way we'd block that on talking to RHEL POs that we don't even know to do that work.
It may be possible to complete the work the SIG requires in CentOS Stream proper in some cases.
Then those people should be participating in CentOS Stream community spaces *now* and engaging proactively. The onus isn't on us to talk to them, it's on them to talk to us, because there's no way for us to know who they are.
