I suppose I understand the negative feedback -- CentOS 8.x will no longer be a rebuild of RHEL 8.x but will instead be some version of RHEL 8.(x + 1) -- but I'm much more interested in empirical results than in suppositions. I've taken a couple test VMs and set them to CentOS 8 Stream and will keep an eye on them. They will either prove stable or not, but (observation > guessing) in my book. If history is any guide, they will prove very stable. If not, then I'll pour one out for CentOS and look elsewhere. -- Paul Heinlein heinlein at madboa.com 45°38' N, 122°6' W
