I too would be interested to know what happens to CentOS 8 Stream once
focus of RedHat moves to RHEL 9?  The life cycle document says the last
release of RHEL8 will be 8.10, that's a five year road map (since point
releases seem to be every 6 months), so the point releases will end in
2024, presumably the end of the point releases means the end of Stream
updates?  Have these things been thought out that far ahead?
