Congrats to the coalition spearheading the development of OpenELA! The Rocky Linux project currently has a working process. However, we believe in a community-accessible source of EL, and we look forward to contributing in similar ways as we contribute to other upstream projects. Whatever comes next, the future of Enterprise Linux looks bright.https://openela.org/news/hello_world/

Happy Software Freedom Day! On this third Saturday of September, we celebrate high-quality Free and Open Source Software like Rocky Linux and the Linux kernel. Free Software refers to the user's freedom to look under the hood, customize it, and distribute it. The Digital Freedom Foundation believes that "to use free software is to make a political and ethical choice asserting the right to learn, and share what we learn with others."We couldn't agree more. @dff @resf #softwarefreedomday

The Rocky Linux team had a great time at Flock to Fedora last week in Rochester. We were glad to support our upstream at the gold level, and enjoyed being there in person for community development keynotes, hackfests, and after-hours connection. #flocktofedora #flocktorochester #museumofplay #rockycommunity

The Rocky Linux team attended the RISC-V International Summit #riscvsummit in San Jose this week. We were inspired to rub shoulders with so many innovators and forward thinkers in the world of lightweight open-source custom processors. The Expo Hall featured interesting vendors and sponsors we hadn't met previously, and the Lightning Talks gave a fascinating glimpse of emerging technology. We also got to hang out with RISC-V evangelist, Isaac Chute. Can't wait to be part of #riscveverywhere!

The beacons are lit, @osuosl calls for aid: 🚨 Oregon State University Open Source Lab will shut down this year if funding is not met. 🚨Among countless other open source projects, OSL supports Rocky Linux by hosting our ppc64le and s390x build environments.Please consider donating to #OSUOSL. Talk to your organizations about the open source software they depend on that in turn depends on OSL, and ask them to consider donating.https://osuosl.org/blog/osl-future/

🚨 It’s official: RISC-V will be joining the Rocky Linux 10 architecture lineup!This milestone wouldn’t be possible without the incredible work of the Fedora RISC-V community. We’ve built on their upstream-first foundation to bring riscv64gc into the Rocky family—alongside x86_64, aarch64, ppc64le, and s390x.Big thanks to @fedora, @RISC-V International, and everyone helping push open hardware forward.🧠Read more: https://rockylinux.org/news/rockylinux-support-for-riscv#RockyLinux #RISCV #Fedora #AltArch
