We'll be focusing on other image types before we decide how we want to handle vagrant images. For now, Stream 8 boxes are stored in the buildsystem, example: https://kojihub.stream.centos.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=31089

Stream 9 images, as usual, can be found on cloud.centos.org: https://cloud.centos.org/centos/9-stream/x86_64/images/
