So let's reverse the process and make RHEL a downstream of CentOS, it will now be Fedora ELN - > CentOS Stream - > CentOS Linux - > RHEL. There would have been no downstream build sponsored by Red Hat, CentOS Linux would have kill other clones this way, as it already did for Scientific Linux 8, the CentOS Community would have been happy to help to get a better RHEL in the Stream process, and Red Hat folks could have put all the value of their brand and specificities in their final products, backed with a strong ecosystem they could have controlled. I eared you no answer about this proposal, could you tell me why if it's not all about grabbing more money from the CentOS Community ? -Jean-Marc -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
