Hi, On Thursday, September 2nd hughesjr built a couple of VIrt SIG release rpms.

I guess the build missed a compose on Thursday and I know CentOS is not releasing on Fridays so I expected it to land on Monday September 7th. As of today the packages are not yet in extras repo, is there any problem in the release process or in the built rpms? Anything I can help with?
Thanks,

Obviously this is now pushed .. sorry for the delay.
C8 in general, just takes more time. This is an entirely different process than the last 17 years. It involves a koji builder, a signing HSM that lives in a different place than koji with manual signatures, a compose process that rebuilds the whole repo via pungi .. not just an additive process. Publishing the repo to QA first then to live after auto running of CI and not the ability for me to manually run it.
In short .. getting a C8 release of any type is very time consuming. Throw in the need to prioritize normal updates for base c6, c7, c8 over extras or centosplus and it just takes more time.
I am sorry, but that is just the truth. I am one person.
