Overview

Goals

The Alternate Images SIG's goal is to build and provide alternate iso images for CentOS Stream. These images will be hosted in the CentOS infrastructure. They will be regularly updated at least once every three months.

Processes will be put in place for the addition, maintenance, and removal of images.

Whenever possible, these images will be created on the CentOS or Fedora infrastructure. If there is a reason that the image is not built on that infrastructure, then the image building must be trackable.

Communication

• Meetings: The SIG hold meetings on the 2nd Thursday of each month at 19:00 UTC. The meeting is currently held on Fedora's Matrix Meeting channel
• Matrix: Fedora: CentOS Alt Images - Used the Most
• IRC: Libera IRC at #centos-alt-images - Used the Least
• email: The SIG uses the centos-devel mailing list
• Feature Requests / SIG Issues: AltImages SIG Issue Tracker
• Bugs / Image Issues: AltImages Images Issue Tracker

Membership

Everybody is welcome to join and contribute to the SIG. The current set of members is:

Troy Dawson (Chair)
Neal Gompa
Robby Callicotte
Brian Stinson
Davida Cavalca
Michel Lind

At the beginning of each year an election will be held to determine the Chairperson. At that point it will also be determined if the SIG has a Co-Chair, or a Single Chairperson for the year.

Membership can be requested by filing an issue on the SIG tracker or by asking during one of the regular IRC meetings. Current members can raise objection, and in case of disagreement membership requests can be put to a vote, but in general we'd welcome anybody that's interested and willing to do work within the scope of the SIG. We do expect SIG members to actively contribute or otherwise remain engaged with the project, and will initiate removal of stale members after six months of inactivity.
