On Wednesday 18 December 2019, the CentOS Board of Directors will hold it's last meeting of the 2019 calendar year. Below is the agenda for that meeting that can be shared with the community and wider public. FYI, the "consent agenda" are items that have been discussed on mailing list or another forum where the Directors have reached consensus. This consent agenda is a way to capture and formalize those decisions, and to give Directors a final chance to bring an item up for discussion in a meeting before the decision is final. ** *Public agenda* *** 1. Looking at if Community Platform Engineering (CPE) can begin to build and release CentOS Linux 8 and CentOS Stream into various public clouds. 2.
