Is this good news for the "Centos" family?
There is no CentOS "family". CentOS clone is dead and will be now
Odd that you say it's dead when 7 doesn't sunset until June 30th, 2024.
Maybe not best choice of the word, but I meant there will not be further development on that front. CentOS 7 cloning will be just rinse and repeat of established process. If CentOS 8 was not killed almost no one would have installed CentOS 7 on any new server (keeping in mind desire for 10-year til EOL), so I see CentOS 7 as close to EOL and his usefulness for new systems will only decrease.
I couldn't agree more.
Hence it is as good as dead in my mind when looking into the future, I am looking for future distro of choice.
A little mentioned choice would be openSUSE, which is direction I am taking.
