Yes, of course, that’s completely understandable and fine and I don’t think and
expect SuSE is taking over the Spacewalk replacement development.

(hopefully straight forward) replacement, Uyuni is not that great for a
Bringing Uyuni back to CentOS shouldn't be too bad. I'm starting with
Fedora because there's a lot more stuff packaged there, and having a
working state on Fedora is 80% of the work for bringing it to CentOS 8

It’s quite familiar to Spacewalk users and also adds Salt Master functionality.
