Hi Giacomo,
We as team.blue are contributing actively to the oVirt project the last
months.
And we are keeping the project up and running, adding features etc.
At this moment we don't really have a public roadmap, but we have some
things internally we are working on or are on our roadmap.
For example:
- Make oVirt Hypervisor run on CentOS 10 / AlmaLinux 10
- Looking into Java 21 (Needed to make engine running on CentOS 10)
- Getting all pipelines running on CentOS 10
- Fixing the system tests
etc etc
So a lot of things are moving :) Help is always wanted of course.
We want to make a new release soon with all the changes from the last year.
Feel free to also join our Matrix channel so we can discuss further if
you want to contribute more to the project.
Thanks
Jean-LOuis
