Can anybody provide a rough estimate on a release (Alpha, Beta, RC, etc) of CentOS Stream 9 -- the point where we can install and then update from the repo?

Just a reminder, there are no distinguished Alpha, Beta, or RC 'releases' of Stream, Stream always just moves forward.
Some important things need to happen before we can put content on the mirrors:
- Signed packages need to make it to the composes (I expect this on the order of days)
- We need to set up the mirror directories and push the content to the mirror network (I expect this to wrap up on the order of a few weeks)
- We need to update the mirrorlist/metalink infrastructure to work with the new directory layout (I also expect this to wrap up on the order of a few weeks)
Until then, you can consume what we call the 'production' composes: https://composes.stream.centos.org/production/
Those represent the bits that we expect to sync to the mirrors regularly going forward.

Build roots of Stream 9 are already in COPR.
I would like to test some rebuilds in COPR. Is there any DistGit instance already selectable in COPR?
If not - how does the git URI look like to use SCM as source and which type to select (rpkg, tito) in the build interface of COPR?
Maybe its to early to ask such things...

https://github.com/ktdreyer/ceph-el9 explains the steps I've been using to build against el9 in Copr.
I should mention that all the packages I care about are already in Fedora. I clone Fedora's dist-git, then generate the SRPMs on my computer. Then I mock-build locally them to ensure I have the dependency chain right, and then I upload those SRPMs to Copr for building.
There are a small number of packages I have to copy from CentOS 9's Koji, because not all the -devel packages are in the compose. I hope to improve that situation because it's difficult to keep up with the NVR changes that are happening in the composes.

Please file bugs for those missing -devel packages to request they be added to CRB.

Ok, with the recent addition of lua-devel to CentOS 9, we only need libtool-ltdl-devel now. I filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1999315

I noticed this and rebuild the missing parts in copr and self-referenced the copr repo (with priority).
But I'm still wondering if it is already possible to provide a git uri like https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/acl and then rebuild it in copr?
It looks like that the lookaside step (sources) doesn't work ...?
