About
The Rocky Linux Release Engineering Team (also known as SIG/Core) dedicates themselves to the development, building, management, production, and release of Rocky Linux. This group combines development and infrastructure in a single cohesive unit of individuals that ultimately make the distribution happen.
The "SIG/Core" reference name is not a strict Special Interest Group (as defined by the Rocky Linux wiki).
The primary goal (or "interest") is to ensure Rocky Linux is built and released in a complete and functional manner. The secondary goal is to ensure proper collaboration and development of the Peridot build system.
Mission
Release Engineering strives to ensure a stable distribution is developed, built, tested, and provided to the community from the RESF as a compatible derivative of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. To achieve this goal, some of the things we do are:
- Ensuring a quality and fully compatible release product
- Developing and iterating on the build systems and architecture
- Developing all code in the open
- Setting the technical direction for the build system architecture
- Release of beta and final products to the end users and mirrors
- Release of timely updates to the end users and mirrors
See the What We Do page for a more detailed explanation of our activities.
