Sorry, but the community in CentOS could not bring ideas to the table, because the point of CentOS was to have a rebuild of RHEL and not differ.

So please be very careful when you use the word community. -- (o- Julien Pivotto //\ Config Management SIG V_/_ https://frama.link/cfgmgmt -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
