Not sure how plugins would fit into this though. -d On Tue, Oct 17, 2017 at 11:17 AM, Bryan Kearney <bryan.kear...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 10/16/2017 04:36 AM, Michael Moll wrote: > > I don't really have stakes in RPMs, but I'd try to stick with option 1 > > and I even expect that there's some demand for Rails SCLs at least in > > the RHEL/CentOS world by other projects, too. > > > > Regards > > I would suggest the decision be made based on the assumption that the > foreman community owns all the work for options 1 and 2.
