Exactly, the core distro stays where it is - we add layered and enhanced
options with low barriers to entry around it.
yum install centos-release-gluster
yum install gluster.
makes for a much easier gluster onramp ( or ceph or openafs ).
If you look at the projects we interface with, it will be clear that
this is all in the interest of the regular established existing CentOS
userbase - eg. ci.centos.org now hosts the integration testing for
libvirt upstream ( I suspect most people will agree that libvirt is
something we all care about deeply ). Other projects I am working with
to have them come test with CentOS are : OpenStack, theforeman,
libguestfs, mariadb, postgresql etc ( and we welcome others a well).
Now if you look at the SIGs coming up and delivering content - it should
again be pretty clear what sort of content we are facilitating here.
