# 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
* One new power9 online in iad2, second one needs hands on today.
* Almost all bugzilla auth changes made, still need some changes to
toddlers (ongoing)
* Container builds broken again in an odd way (
https://pagure.io/releng/issue/10658)
* Discussion on fedoraplanet.org on infrastructure list, please chime in
if you have thoughts about it.
### CentOS Infra including CentOS CI
* Migration of Pagure to new CentOS CI in progress
* Openssl3 [late
change](https://gitlab.com/redhat/centos-stream/rpms/openssl/-/commit/78fb78d30755ae18fdaef28ef392f4e67c662ff6)
in EL9 impacting SIGs and gpg keys
### Release Engineering
* Work on SCM request automation in progress -
[PR](https://pagure.io/fedora-infra/toddlers/pull-request/93)
* Container builds failing on armhfp
* Bussiness as usual
## 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
-------
* Investigating compose QA improvements both in the t-functional suite
and changes we may want to implement later in the project.
* Developing sync2gitlab service for 8, 9 workflow alignment
* Business as usual activities around CentOS Linux 7
* Work continuing on content resolvers maintainer pages also
## 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
-------
* Demo/Status call
* Deployment to staging (ongoing)
* Documentation (ongoing)
* Expiring sessions (ongoing)
## Image builder for Fedora IoT
Goal of this Initiative
-----------------------
Integration of Image builder as a service with Fedora infra to allow
Fedora IoT migrate their pipeline to Fedora infra.
Updates
-------
* No updates
## Bodhi
Goal of this Initiative
-----------------------
This initiative is to separate Bodhi into multiple sub packages, fix
integration and unit tests in CI, fix dependency management and automate
part of the release process.
Read ARC team findings in detail at:
https://fedora-arc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/bodhi/index.html
Updates
-------
* No updates
## 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
-------
* EPEL9 up to 2059 source packages (increase of 71 from last week)
* EPEL9 buildroot has switched to a snapshot of the CentOS Stream 9
mirror, to avoid building against any 9.1 changes prior to the RHEL 9.0 GA
* [EPEL Office
Hours](https://communityblog.fedoraproject.org/epel-office-hours/) were
yestarday at 1700 UTC
* epel-release (and epel-next-release) now available in CentOS Stream 9

Kindest regards,
CPE Team
