Re: CentOS Stream, RHEL, and Fedora [was Re: What is Fedora?]

[Carlos Rodriguez-Fernandez]

This is actually good news, especially for the CentOS Stream project.

Quotes:
....
After much discussion, the AlmaLinux OS Foundation board today has 
decided to drop the aim to be 1:1 with RHEL. AlmaLinux OS will instead 
aim to be Application Binary Interface (ABI) compatible*
....
We will also start asking anyone who reports bugs in AlmaLinux OS to 
attempt to test and replicate the problem in CentOS Stream as well, so 
we can focus our energy on correcting it in the right place.
....
While all of these changes open up a lot of opportunities, we want to be 
clear about the fact that we are still dedicated to being good open 
source citizens. We’ll continue to contribute upstream in Fedora and 
CentOS Stream and to the greater Enterprise Linux ecosystem, just as we 
have been doing since our inception, and we invite our community to do 
the same!
