On this episode of the Futurum Tech Webcast – Interview Series, I’m joined by Gunnar Hellekson, GM and VP of Red Hat Enterprise Linux for a candid and transparent conversation about CentOS Stream and the future of public RHEL-related source code releases.

Our discussion covers:

• We get an overview of some of the recent announcements from Red Hat surrounding CentOS Stream
• A look at how Red Hat is approaching the future of public RHEL-related source code releases
• We discuss some of the community reaction to the changes in source code releases, and Red Hat’s commitment to their upstream-first policy
• Gunnar shares how Red Hat is prioritizing the ease of transition into Red Hat Enterprise Linux, and what that looks like for users
• Finally, I ask Gunnar to share three key takeaways that he’d like community, enterprise customers, and non-enterprise developers to consider from our discussion
