Todays' monthly meeting was lightly attended as expected, and we didn't have a lot of technical topics to update, but I did want to send out the one thing we did cover. 

August marks the 1st anniversary of the CentOS Automotive SIG, and we have accomplished quite a lot over this first year. The first meeting was August 19, 2021, at which time there was no infrastructure at all and the group had just been voted into existence by the CentOS board. 

Now, one year later, we have a robust repository within the CentOS domain, open to contributions by the public - and indeed we had our first contributor from outside Red Hat over the past month, which is a great example of the value we hope we are bringing to automotive Linux development. In addition to the repositories, we have a strong nightly build structure providing a continuous stream of images that are easy to download and get running via QEMU or on a Raspberry Pi 4. The image uses Stream 9 components with a customized (real time) kernel, a good example of CentOS Stream based development, and a fun and interesting project. 

Congratulations to everyone involved with the SIG, and thanks again to CentOS for hosting it!
