Every package in CentOS stream will be signed with CentOS keys, and CentOS is now trademark of Red Hat. Are you sure it would be legal to publish/distribute CentOS-signed packages under any other name? CentOS and other clones were legaly "safe" because they distributed their own binaries, but could bot use any RHEL's binaries... -- Ljubomir Ljubojevic (Love is in the Air) PL Computers Serbia, Europe StarOS, Mikrotik and CentOS/RHEL/Linux consultant
