Also just a quick intro from me. I'm going to try to participate in threads like this while we get CentOS Stream figured out. I'm Senior Director of Platform Engineering at Red Hat and I currently manage Fedora, CentOS Infrastructure, CoreOS, and about 70% of the packages in RHEL. Jim and his team report up through me. Some of you may remember me from my earlier days in the community as Fedora Infrastructure Lead (around the time EPEL was created). Keep the questions coming everyone and please do be patient with us while we get things figured out. We're trying to do it in the open but that means we didn't build CentOS Stream behind the scenes for a grand unveiling today. It's going to be a bumpy few months so please do pardon our dust. -Mike > Phil > > -- Mike McGrath Platform Engineering - Chicago Red Hat mmcgrath at redhat.com T: (312)-660-3547 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
