As a Hatter, I'm proud to say that I--and most all of my team--use Fedora for our work machines. I run F31 without modular repos on all four of my boxes in my home office. I work on Dogtag PKI (https://www.dogtagpki.org), a private CA, built on top of a Tomcat/Java stack. Responding to the JBoss dismissal: JBoss is its own product and doesn't have the goal of shipping on Fedora before it ships in its own product. All of the JBoss packages maintained in Fedora are maintained by the community (including non-JBoss Red Hatters) who need them in other packages. Concretely, if you'd like to see more JBoss packages, join us in the Stewardship SIG and collaborate to revive the ones you care about. :-) - Alex N.B.: I'd like to thank the Red Hat JVM team for being solid in their Fedora execution. But they maintain only the JVM, and not the rest of the Java ecosystem. :-) > _______________________________________________ > devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org > _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
