Hi Everyone,

Below is this week's CPE weekly for week ending 2020-10-17.
Im gone a little bi-weekly lately with this report. This has been more
circumstantial with our quarter 3 projects ending and launching
quarter 4 work, and will get back to a weekly report now that Q4 is
underway.
So, the updates for both Fedora & CentOS are below, and if you want to
visit the hackmd link https://hackmd.io/8iV7PilARSG68Tqv8CzKOQ?view
you can then use the header bar on your left to skip to Fedora or
CentOS updates that interest you.


## General Project Updates

We have a CPE Q3 Achievements blog out on the Fedora and CentOS websites
https://blog.centos.org/2020/10/cpe-q3-achievements-2020/
https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/cpe-achievements-during-q3-2020/

And below are the projects the CPE team are working on for the months
of October, November & December:
* CentOS Stream Phase 4 - Build system services
* Noggin Phase 4 - Data Migration of Fedora & CentOS Accounts, Community testing
* OSBS for aarch64 - this will begin in November
* Fedora Messaging Schemas - this work is continuing from Q3 and is
being worked on part-time

### Misc

#### GitLab
There is now a blog post out on the Fedora community blog on the AMA,
you can read it here
https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/gitlab-ama-follow-up/
Im going to be sending one mail per week to the CentOS and Fedora
devel lists on Fridays, dedicated to one topic.
The first topic will be Permission and Access in GitLab. I will pull
the questions and answers from the hackmd doc into an email body to
try to facilitate dedicated discussion around this topic. I would like
to just set expectations now that I don't consider myself to be
technical enough to weigh in on the discussion, but I am looking
forward to reading and learning from the conversation.

## Background:
The Community Platform Engineering group, or CPE for short, is the Red
Hat team combining IT and release engineering from Fedora and CentOS.
Our goal is to keep core servers and services running and maintained,
build releases, and other strategic tasks that need more dedicated
time than volunteers can give.


See our wiki page here for more
information:https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/cpe/



As always, feedback is welcome, and we will continue to look at ways
to improve the delivery and readability of this weekly report.


Have a great week!

Aoife
