The same packages, with small tweaks, also work on RHEL.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Status here:<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><a href="https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OpenStack#OpenStack_in_EPEL">https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/OpenStack#OpenStack_in_EPEL</a><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Now, before I go any further: who is with me? Is there pent-up user demand for OpenStack on RHEL, or service providers who are loyal to the RHEL family who would benefit from having the packages in EPEL? Or do we expect most OpenStack users to simply use Ubuntu/Canonical or a Citrix distribution thereof? I don’t want to push packages that are likely to go unused.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<br>Matt<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";color:#444444'>--<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";color:#444444'>Matt Domsch<o:p></o:p></span></b></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";color:#444444'>Technology Strategist<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";color:#0085C3'>Dell</span></b><span style='font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Trebuchet MS","sans-serif";color:#444444'> | Office of the CTO<b><o:p></o:p></b></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
