Hi,
I have to port/build quite a number of packages for upcoming RHEL9.
I thought about starting to do so now on CentOS-Stream-9-20211222.0 in the hope that I don't have to redo a lot of the work again later for the released RHEL9.
Does it sound like a good idea to start now or should I better wait a bit?
Thanks, Simon

I'm already doing that. Do just expect everything that also happened in EL8. Missing devel or sub packages. Striped down s/rpm macros that blocks building fedora packages directly. So, business as usual. BTW, some packages are not in streams anymore. This makes custom overlay repos a bit easier ...

I think you can build directly against the repos in the centos stream koji.
