[ovirt-users] oVirt 4.4.7 development

Hi all, we are starting to work on oVirt 4.4.7 and as you probably noticed we are slowly transitioning away from CentOS. We added CentOS Stream option for regular hosts, and the current 4.4.6 Node and Appliance are already built from Stream. We also have some initial patches for alternative RHEL clones other than CentOS, however we can’t really support them until they provide the required dependencies. We are not ditching CentOS just yet, but we can no longer accommodate the long delay it takes CentOS team to produce a next minor version, hence for oVirt 4.4.7 we will require the operating system to be at the RHEL 8.4 level - that’s a CentOS 8.4 if that gets released in time or the actual RHEL 8.4 or any 8.4 clone like Alma, Rocky, OL with the right dependencies (probably the ones from Stream) or CentOS Stream. In the meantime we're going to be moving the existing CI resources to test with CentOS Stream to unblock development of new features. If you would want to help with testing other OSes patches are welcome to add support for them Thanks, michal
