Subject: Choice of distribution for new sourceware.org server?
Date: Thu, 06 Feb 2020 01:05:00 -0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <74e963de-f7c8-33d0-d133-ada427c000a4@redhat.com> (raw)
Overseers,
May I ask why CentOS 8 was chosen as the distribution choice for
the new sourceware.org servers?
Is there any reason that RHEL 8 was not chosen?
Alternatively Fedora Server on a faster update cycle?
Was there any requirement or discussion around which distribution
to choose for the new server?
I can see RHEL 8 serving as a better platform than CentOS 8, particularly
if Red Hat donates the licenses.
Likewise using Fedora Server would keep all of our services running on
the latest distribution with access to new server-side tooling for CI.
Thank you for your time!

Cheers,
Carlos.
