Indeed, I have been busy. Then on vacation. Then back in time for another deadline. I'm always open to hear feedback on the RHEL and Fedora packages (I maintain Fedora packages as well as RHEL). Thanks to Julien for creating those copr builds. That makes my life so much easier! A couple items about Fedora/RHEL packages. For Fedora, I try to be responsive for CVEs, minor release rebases, and enabling features (eg. Prometheus support). Lesser things like minor spec file changes usually get a much lower priority. Note that we do not rebase to a new, major release within a stable release. For example, if Fedora 31 has haproxy-2.0.x, it will never have haproxy-2.1.x. That is what copr is for. For RHEL, it is even more restrictive. I don't make the rules, just wanted to explain this since I get a lot of email asking about these things. Cheers. Ryan
