## Background:
The Community Platform Engineering group, or CPE for short, is the Red
Hat team combining IT and release engineering from Fedora and CentOS.
Our goal is to keep core servers and services running and maintained,
build releases, and other strategic tasks that need more dedicated
time than volunteers can give.


See our wiki page here for more
information:https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/cpe/



As always, feedback is welcome, and we will continue to look at ways
to improve the delivery and readability of this weekly report.


Have a great week!

Aoife
