CentOS Proposed Updates SIG: Bridging the Gap between development and production

(and maybe something about Hyperscale, i.e. different places your patches could land)

Speakers:

• Davide Cavalca
• Neal Gompa

Description: (20-60 words)

CentOS Stream is especially suited for production deployments. In these environments it's often common to develop improvements to distribution packages and want to contribute them upstream. Until very recently that required one to then maintain their own build and deployment pipeline for the packages, until the changes made their way into the distribution. CentOS Proposed Updates (CPU) SIG aims to bridge this gap - changes that have been submitted as merge requests can be built in this SIG, providing those who run Stream in production with access to needed updates while they make their way into CentOS Stream. We hope this will help increase collaboration between RHEL engineers, CentOS Stream contributors, and the rebuild community as well, especially those that have distributions derived from CentOS Stream directly (such as AlmaLinux with AlmaLinux OS Kitten), as everyone can focus on making improvements without reinventing their own build pipelines.
