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. ## Project Updates *The below updates are pulled directly from our CPE team call we have every week.* ## Fedora ### General * Go NoGo meeting was on 15th Oct.

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.

Have a great week!
