The AlmaLinux Engineering Steering Committee

ALESCo toimii keskeisenä kohtauspaikkana kaikkien AlmaLinux-projektiin liittyvien parissa työskentelevien kesken. Keskustelemalla avoimesti ja kutsumalla näkemyksiä kaikilta, jotka koskettavat AlmaLinuxia, varmistamme, että AlmaLinux palvelee edelleen yhteisöään.

About ALESCo

ALESCo, joka on kutsuttu "lennonjohdoksi" kaikissa suunnitteluasioissa, varmistaa AlmaLinuxin kestävyyden, luotettavuuden ja kestävyyden työskennellessään yhteistyössä asianmukaisten erityiseturyhmien (Special Interest Group (SIG)) kanssa ja valvoen teknisiä päätöksiä. Toimikunnalla on viisi päätehtävää:

  • Käyttöjärjestelmän tekninen valvonta
  • Avoimuus teknisissä päätöksissä
  • Pitkän aikavälin vakauden keskittymisen varmistaminen
  • Julkaisujen hallinta
  • SIG-tuki

ALESCo brings together the maintainers, packagers, and SIG leads who build and sustain AlmaLinux OS. It is not a closed body. Anyone working on or using AlmaLinux is welcome to bring proposals, raise concerns, and help shape technical direction in the open.

How ALESCo works

ALESCo meets every two weeks, and the schedule is posted on events.almalinux.org. Decisions are made by majority vote of the committee, and the chair role rotates among members every six months. Discussion happens in the open in the alesco channel on chat.almalinux.org, and technical proposals are tracked as pull requests in the ALESCo repository on GitHub. Anyone working on or using AlmaLinux is welcome to join a meeting, raise a topic, or open a proposal.

Lifecycle of a proposal

Proposals are written as RFCs and submitted as pull requests, then move through these stages in the open.

1

The RFC is opened as a pull request and reviewed for formatting and fit with the RFC process. Once it qualifies, the “accepted for discussion” tag is added.

2 Accepted for Discussion

The RFC is under active discussion in the open and may go through several revisions.

3 Vote at Next Meeting

ALESCo announces a Final Comment Period to signal that a decision is near, and adds the “vote at next meeting” tag.

4 Closed

ALESCo makes the final call, weighing community feedback. An RFC ends in one of these outcomes:

Accepted Rejected Withdrawn Superseded

In rare cases that touch trademarks, significant resources, or partnerships, the AlmaLinux Foundation Board provides input before a vote.

Open Proposals

These are the RFCs currently before ALESCo, along with their status. We love hearing from our community about the proposals under consideration, so every perspective is in the room before a decision is made.
