What would it take to nudge this project (oVirt Node and hosted-engine)
towards Rocky Linux 9 or maybe Alma Linux 9?
Rocky is committed to the full 10-year life cycle of RHEL. Whereas
CentOS Stream 9 ends when the "full-support" cycle of RHEL ends and
RHEL's maintenance-only begins. This means that CentOS Stream 9 will
EOL in early 2027; just three short years away.
Maybe someone's arm at Rocky can be twisted to push oVirt in their
direction.
Thoughts?

mentions "The oVirt Engine must run on Enterprise Linux 8.7 or later." which
