Yes! I'm bookmarking this repo. As soon as there is a more concrete plan, I will definitely pledge my time to help out.

I hope we all learned our lesson on this one -- let's not get acquired by RedHat/IBM this time around :)

Three cheers for Kurtzer!

Thanks but no need for cheers. I've learned some hard lessons over the years. This time, it will stay in the community, right where it belongs.

Thank you for your support. Things are moving fast and we are looking forward to our first release, so stay tuned!

Does it not make sense to keep doing this and intentionally get acquired? As long as the contract doesn't forbid you from making another community fork, it seems like free money to me.

(Have never personally contributed to RHEL/CentOS, so no skin in the game. Probably I'm wrong.)
