+ <h3>How SIGs can facilitate contributions to the CentOS Stream kernel</h3>
+ <p class="who"><a href="#bonzini"><img src="bonzini.jpg">Paolo Bonzini</a></p>
+ <p>The CentOS Stream kernel receives backports for thousands of upstream
+ commits every month. In this talk, I will show how CentOS SIGs can be
+ used to help testing and tracking future contributions to CentOS Stream,
+ helping to structure them into multiple merge requests for the CentOS
+ Stream kernel project on GitLab. The content of this talk are based on
+ the experience gained when developing a TDX-enabled kernel variant within
+ the Virtualization SIG.</p>

+ <h3>The self-abolition of Enterprise Linux Distributions</h3>
+ <p class="who"><a href="#cermak"><img src="cermak.jpg">Dan Čermák</a></p>
+ <p>Enterprise Linux Distributions have been caught in a downward spiral
+ for the past decade. The distributions have been steadily reducing
+ their package sets, as it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain
+ packages in a faster moving ecosystem. This in turn renders enterprise
+ distributions less desirable as a deployment or a development target
+ and especially as a workstation. There is a growing realization that
+ the current release cadence and package maintenance workflow become
+ less suitable for the world where workloads are run as containers
+ based on non-enterprise distributions.</p>
+ <p>What is the way out of this? How can enterprise vendors solve the
+ problem to remain relevant in a cloud native world? Will a more
+ modular distribution be the solution? Or perhaps the container
+ ecosystem, where everything is containerized, is the answer?</p>

+ <h3>Testing the CentOS Hyperscale systemd backport with mkosi</h3>
+ <p class="who"><a href="#demeyer"><img src="demeyer.jpg">Daan De Meyer</a></p>
+ <p>The CentOS Hyperscale SIG maintains a backport of the latest systemd.
+ This talk will discuss how we use mkosi to test this backport. mkosi is
+ the image building sister project of systemd
+ (<a href="https://github.com/systemd/mkosi">https://github.com/systemd/mkosi</a>).
+ We'll start with a brief introduction to mkosi before moving on to discussing
+ how we use it to test the backport. This involves locally building the systemd
+ rpm locally from the systemd and Hyperscale systemd rpm sources within mkosi,
+ building initrd and system images including the newly build systemd rpms and
+ finally booting the resulting image with qemu. If there's time left, we'll
+ also discuss the SELinux policy module we maintain for the systemd backport.</p>
