Is it possible for me to get a "text document or libreoffice word document?"

The author starts by saying using Jenkins.

What is Jenkins and where can I get it or information about it. Not stated in the draft.

Example of correction:

The choice of CentOS was to maximize support time and stay within the RHEL family.

I would have written

I did write you earlier about doing some editing and writing. I would be glad to work with authors to proof their writing.

I presume you can accept updates after go-live.

My experience is that it _should not_ be anything but a Fedora system.
It should be at least be the target Fedora version or higher. Ideally,
you always run the target version's livemedia-creator+Anaconda, which
is why Koji uses mock to set up the environment and then run it inside
of there.

In addition, it's a very bad idea to recommend using "createrepo"
instead of "createrepo_c", due to the former not supporting most of
Fedora's newer RPM features and potentially weird things happening
there.

If you're using livecd-creator, you can get away with a lot more,
since you're no longer sensitive to Anaconda's fragilities and the
build engine is DNF.

I believe we may be talking about different servers.  The page seems to indicate the CentOS server is used to serve the bits.

bex
