Greetings,

Greg Kurtzer (the guy who started Caos which became CentOS, and he is 
also the guy who started Warewulf and Singularity), has announced Rocky 
Linux.

https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__rockylinux.org_&d=DwICaQ&c=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA&r=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A&m=PcjfmOcTIXtiyJX8e4EjgVJf_0n7OjIkGzXbVXvtmIg&s=unWm5JFUE__5nWPA8pEHmO3aCjkyrMeVFRQp2XtnnaQ&e= 

It's aiming to be the replacement for a community backed EL8 distro. And 
wow, has he gotten support. It's blowing up on the slack page with 
people wanting to help.

I think you can get an invite through the links on the rockylinux page.

I'm sure if any of the Scientific Linux team wanted to throw some 
pointers over to the group it would be very appreciated. As would any 
support/help from those who want to see a solid EL8 clone. :-)

Thanks!
