What will happen with Centos and .NET? In the side of security and stability.
That announcement, and this website:
http://developers.redhat.com/dotnet/
Are both Microsoft and Red Hat initiatives / agreements. The .NET being discussed is in OpenShift containers running on Microsoft's Azure Cloud.
None of that is currently slated, to the best of my knowledge, to be rolled into the Base distribution for RHEL. Therefore it is also not being added into the CentOS Linux distribution. If / when Red Hat does add things into the base RHEL Server, Workstation, Desktop platforms and releases the source code for it, we will of course rebuild that source code and add the resulting software to CentOS Linux.
Another method of getting things into the CentOS universe is to start a Special Interest Group that provides optional software to CentOS repositories (Currently things like Xen support, GlusterFS, Ceph, RDO, Software Collections, Opennfv, etc). I do not know of any current or planned .NET SIG for CentOS. There certainly could be one in the future (if there is interest), or one of the current SIGs might need to bring in .NET for developing software for their SIG. But I currently know of no one bringing it in.
Microsoft has stated that will also make .NET Core available for Ubuntu, Debian and CentOS Linux. That is not something that I know anything about right now either.
The CentOS team certainly welcomes development software like .NET being provided by the software owner for use on CentOS Linux.
Thanks, Johnny Hughes
