I am going to be giving a webinar on #CentOS streams. Is there anything specific people would like to know on the subject?

I don't know enough about #CentOS streams to have any questions about it.

I think the big question is why you might want this, and...you probably don't on your production machines, but you def mind on dev machines:
"Rolling-release distro that tracks just ahead of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) development, positioned as a midstream between Fedora Linux and RHEL. For anyone interested in participating and collaborating in the RHEL ecosystem, CentOS Stream is your reliable platform for innovation."

@dawsports @musicman The thing that I've noted is that the software in #RHEL / #CentOS is so old that people rely on sketchy third-party repos. When fresh.federati.net was around, I had to do that to get a #PHP version new enough to run GS.
So if CentOS stream is newer, but not bleeding edge, and if it gave some warning of upcoming major changes, it might indeed be a better choice. Not for corporate apps,of course, but for hosting externally-developed projects, yes.
