These are questions I'm interested in answers on. However, I'm also worried about how much the "cloud" was mentioned in the presser. It makes me nervous about Red Hat's investment into other areas, which a lot of the Linux ecosystem relies on, even outside of the Fedora community. Desktop Linux, traditional server platforms, IoT, etc. look like areas that might be disinvested in. :( > What > is the expected release date for RHEL 8, so I can stop building the > *very* large dependency chains between current Fedora components I > need to backport to RHEL 7 and CentOS 7? Yeah, no. They're not going to answer this. I wouldn't even expect them to. But a little sleuthing will give you some idea of when we'll see the next RHEL release. :) > Will IBM and Red Hat rein in > the "let's replace another system function into systemd that has > nothing to do with logging or daemon management" ? Yeah, no. That's very pejorative. I wouldn't answer it even if I knew the answer to it. -- 真実はいつも一つ!/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
