<SNiP> Hours of reading </SNIP> CentOS Fans: I've spent hours yesterday and today reading the messages about the Centos 8 Stream, and expect to do it for the next few days also. I would recommend that anyone contemplating some action, such as switching to a different distribution, advising your management to change, or similar, postpone that action for a while. Let the dust settle, let the policy makers evaluate the comments, and watch for clarifications and/or modifications of the plan. For lack of a better date, I suggest waiting until the first business day of 2021 (Monday 04 January) before taking any significant actions. Personally, I've already invested some of my time incorporating CentOS 8. I've also been working with Ubuntu since that seems to be the only way forward with Raspberry Pi and Apple/Intel machines, but I'll keep my CentOS 7/8 machines stable for this month at least. David -
