A few days ago, I installed #centos stream,    the middle ground between #fedora   and #redhat   

This combination of a solid, but not too conservative OS with flatpaks from #flathub as the standard source of apps is quite interesting. I admit that there are some provisos I have to overcome regarding the stability.

Maybe some more of the essential apps should go to #epel.

A few days ago, I installed #centos steam 10,    the middle ground between #fedora   and #redhat   

I think I should promote it, as the combination of a solid, but not too conservative OS with flatpaks from #flathub as the standard source of apps is quite interesting.

Would be nice to have a #SIG pushing forward a solid (scientific) workstation, because a number of essential apps should be made available in #epel, just to have a more stable foundation for essential tasks. Anyone up for such a SIG?

Ok since I'm already half doing it ANYWAY I pose this question:

Should I take over ulogd package maintainer in fedora and possibly epel?

If it's just me and my epel-missing-pieces copr repos because I'm the only one using it basically, I'm content.

If there's anyone else that wants / needs it (and lets be fair if you are using it you are probably doing your own firewalling and not mucking with firewalld, etc. Side note: man do I not like firewalld) I'll go and poke at picking it back up.

Anyone got opinions?

AlmaLinux 10 enables the CRB repo by default, cutting dependency errors and smoothing EPEL installs ahead of the AlmaLinux 10.1 release.

From #CentOSShowcase: @carlwgeorge talked about how minor versions work in everybody's favorite extra package repo, EPEL.

Even though EPEL is primarily used downstream by RHEL, @centos, @rockylinux, and @almalinux, it's actually part of the Fedora Project.

If you benefit from these packages, especially for your day job, consider contributing through package maintenance!
