Good governance takes work.
We reworked our bylaws, moved to ranked choice voting and annual elections.
The 2026 election is open, and individual membership is free if you want a vote! ๐ณ๏ธ almalinux.org/blog/2026-06-1โฆ

We shipped 9.8 AND 10.2 on the same day because waiting a whole extra week is for people who enjoy suffering.
"Olive Jaguar" "Lavender Lion" are both stable, both out now!
