# Highlights of the week

## Infrastructure & Release Engineering
Goal of this Initiative
-----------------------
Purpose of this team is to take care of day to day business regarding
CentOS and Fedora Infrastructure and Fedora release engineering work.
It’s responsible for services running in Fedora and CentOS
infrastructure and preparing things for the new Fedora release
(mirrors, mass branching, new namespaces etc.). The ARC (which is a
subset of the team) investigates possible initiatives that CPE might
take on.

Update
------

### Fedora Infra
* Log4j CVE affects our Openshift 3, mitigated via
[fix](https://access.redhat.com/solutions/6578441)
* Deployed an Openshift Dedicated cluster on AWS still deciding
* Lots of spam cleared off mailing lists

### CentOS Infra including CentOS CI
* Various activities/preparation for CentOS Linux 8 EOL process
    * Proposal for SIGs to [switch to
RHEL8](https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2021-December/098779.html)
    * Preparing needed steps to clear content and remove it from mirrorlist
* WIP for Meta group for SIGs, allowing to build+push their -release
pkgs (not having to depend on CentOS Stream team for this)
* Investigating [openshift template
issue](https://pagure.io/centos-infra/issue/555) for newer deployed
projects and jenkins
* Log4j CVE impact analysis (impacting OCP 4 if Elasticsearch is used,
which we are not using)
* Stream MVBE infra : renewal process for internal TLS cert

## CentOS Stream
Goal of this Initiative
-----------------------
This initiative is working on CentOS Stream/Emerging RHEL to make this
new distribution a reality. The goal of this initiative is to prepare
the ecosystem for the new CentOS Stream.

Updates
-------
* Dealing with a slowdown in rpm signing
* Continuing the development Content Resolver enhancements
* Various cleanup and docs work at various places


## CentOS Duffy CI
Goal of this Initiative
-----------------------
Duffy is a system within CentOS CI Infra which allows tenants to provision and
access bare metal resources of multiple architectures for the purposes of
CI testing.
We need to add the ability to checkout VMs in CentOS CI in Duffy. We have
OpenNebula hypervisor available, and have started developing playbooks which
can be used to create VMs using the OpenNebula API, but due to the current state
of how Duffy is deployed, we are blocked with new dev work to add the
VM checkout functionality.

Updates
-------
* Foundation for background tasks in place
* Started work on authentication and the session workflow
* CLI polish


## OSCI – Distrobaker monitoring
Goal of this Initiative
-----------------------
This initiative is to improve the Distrobaker monitoring to monitor
side-tags and module builds. Distrobaker is a service which rebuilds
the CentOS 9 Stream Koji builds for RHEL 9 in Brew.

Updates
-------
* added a barebones implementation of gathering side tag metrics

## EPEL
Goal of this initiative
-----------------------
Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (or EPEL) is a Fedora Special
Interest Group that creates, maintains, and manages a high quality set
of additional packages for Enterprise Linux, including, but not
limited to, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), CentOS and Scientific
Linux (SL), Oracle Linux (OL).

EPEL packages are usually based on their Fedora counterparts and will
never conflict with or replace packages in the base Enterprise Linux
distributions. EPEL uses much of the same infrastructure as Fedora,
including buildsystem, bugzilla instance, updates manager, mirror
manager and more.

Updates
-------
* No updates - team on time offs

Kindest regards,
CPE Team
