Re: CentOS roadmap/EPEL

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]




There are lots of exciting things happening in the CentOS ecosystem at the moment, by which I mean "upstream" or "across stream" in Fedora and RHEL.

I'm thinking of projects that equip RH-like EL in general for serious entry into the enterprise, things like the Fedora Directory Server, and RedHat's Emerging Technologies projects such as Cobbler, FreeIPA and Ovirt. Also JBoss middleware.

Will these sort of packages end up in CentOS eventually, or are there any major problems installing EPEL packages on CentOS?

I know CentOS is very popular in the web hosting world, but enterprise grade directory servers, provisioning servers and virtualisation technologies could also see greater take up of CentOS in areas like local government and education for example (medium sized but slightly cash-challenged organisations).

I suppose this is some kind of roadmap question, or a question about using EPEL packages on CentOS. Personally, I'm interested in using these "emerging technologies" in the local government environment.


personally i already use epel in CentOS and have had no issues - specifically i use this for cobbler/koan
