My vote would be for fedora (kept on a supported release). I don't see why we, as Red Hat, would want to run Ubuntu (if we *need* Ubuntu then we should be pulling Ubuntu containers). I see these machines really as just a platform for setting up containers and therefore I just want a modern podman or, if you insist, docker. Happy to be informed/corrected as always and am not passionate about defending my choice :) On Thu, Feb 20, 2020 at 2:43 AM Patrick Donnelly <pdonnell@redhat.com> wrote:

Hey all,
The rex replacements (named vossi) are almost ready. There are 6 of them. What operating system(s) would you all like installed on them? Half CentOS 8 and half Bionic?
I think we’ve had issues with old packages on CentOS in the past that made doing dev builds annoying — I’m not sure if that’s a reason to make sure we have it in the dev pool or to avoid it and do regularly-upgraded Fedora instead...
I'd prefer CentOS 8 as a stable environment. I've found developers often waste time on debugging Fedora packaging issues. We don't package for Fedora so it should not be considered.
Is there a reason not to use RHEL8 instead of CentOS?
