Reading some through some of the thread it seems the main motivation is
consolidation of tooling across the OCI, RHEL, and (through OCI) Flatpak
landscape. Could you maybe add that little blurb to the change proposal
wiki?

Is OCI moving towards erofs or is it just because of composefs based containers?
 
Aside; I'm perhaps a bit conservative in this regard but it seems EROFS
offers no direct benefit in the short term (reading some of this thread
it actually seems to come with some drawbacks, which the maintainer(s)
are trying to address in their spare time?).

Could you expand on the benefits and possible future benefits that make
the change necessary?


Then from the image building angle, the Image Builder team is making
similar changes for RHEL 10; we also build some Fedora artifacts that
use SquashFS (Fedora IoT's Installer, for example). Would you like to
include that artifact in this change?
