Hi Fabian, Thanks for replying. Yes, I've reached out to the chair and others and also also introduced ourselves at the #RDO meeting yesterday. I've created a CentOS account and applied for the sig-cloud group as advised [1] on the meeting. My account id is 'rohit' with the email 'rohit at yadav.cloud'. As next steps, we'll wait to be advised and hear about the Cloud SIG effort being resumed. [1] https://wiki.centos.org/SIGGuide#head-2e2e639e9d3d1feb0c7aba15213a909fccbae2f3 . Regards.
