I no longer expect any change.
Then why are you always coming back here to voice your concerns if you don't expect any change?
Convince me otherwise. These concerns are not just my concerns, I have had companies calling me for more information or advice because these questions go unanswered.
But few people dare to raise their voice on this list.
There have been interviews by CentOS developers on popular websites in the past promising improvements to how the project is organized, but releases take longer and development/QA stays closed. Why is that ?
/putting on asbestos pants.
each release is more complex than the last. The web of dependency grows, so the reverse-engineering takes longer and longer.
Perhaps the tact to take is to apply pressure to the upstream provider to release the build details? I am sure that many folks who start with CentOS, grow to be large and move to RH proper. So there is, I would venture, an argument to be made that RH providing this info to CentOS and helping CentOS thrive would be beneficial for their business.
