We have CentOS Stream release rpm for a while now[1]. It’s not actively used 
AFAIK but we wanted to explore that since CentOS was long term lagging behind 
released versions.

It’s not really that important what OS we run on, the biggest problem is the 
other dependencies we have, jboss, ansible, openvswitch, virt stack - that 
doesn’t come from CentOS. If we get regular development and reliable releases 
of our dependencies on Stream then we can make oVirt as stable there as it is 
now on CentOS.

We did invest in Debian support long long time ago (we eventually gave up due 
to lack of capacity and reliable/up-to-date dependencies)
We did support PowerKVM distro for ppc64 during the time when IBM was switching 
from PowerVM to qemu (it stopped being relevant). 
And Fedora (same reason as debian, but it still works)

Again, it’s not such a big deal to run on other distro, there’s work in oVirt 
that needs to happen but as long as it is not exotic and versions are not too 
off it’s not really that big of a change, IMHO. What is a big deal is a long 
term commitment to maintain that and help/provide CI resources.

Thanks,
