Hello,
Kinda confused, will CentOS new SIGs: CentOS Storage, CentOS Cloud, and CentOS Virtualization, CentOS Core,etc be a developmental path to future RHEL releases, or will they continue be an exact clone of RHEL, like Centos currently is?
The Core SIG produces the same CentOS everyone knows and loves.
The other sigs allow groups of like-minded community members to take CentOS, and modify it in an officially recognized manner to suit their needs. It also allows projects a method to distribute their applications using CentOS as the platform.
Examples: adding xen support, distributing cloud-init enabled images, or building in glusterfs support.
These are community driven efforts, and you don't have to use them if you don't want to.
Thank you for clarifying, now I've got a better understanding.
