Hi everyone, Some background on me: I've been working with Linux since 1995 in a variety of capacities. I'm fascinated by file systems, configuration and system management technologies. I'm the author of RPMCoW[1]. This was recently accepted for Fedora 34. I aim to provide the new features first as patches to rpm[2] and librepo[3] along with a new package dnf-plugin-cow[4] which I will submit shortly. Given the deadlines for Fedora 34, I expect to iterate the patches against the upstream sources[5][6] in parallel with the forks/PRs on the package sources. I'm presenting (virtually) this work at CentOS Dojo @ FOSDEM 2021[7]. I anticipate the talk will be recorded. To date my best explanations have been facilitated by use of diagrams and simple animation. I expect to eventually write a white paper on this topic, but as time is a precious resource, I am inclined to focus on making this available to all first. I am excited to finally contribute back to the community which has given so much.
