  * Debian Build Development status
      o Pulp status--> moving to APTLY(_https://www.aptly.info/_)
          + Adding source support to pulp_deb is taking longer than
            expected
          + so pivot to using Aptly
          + both have REST API, and python3 client libraries
          + discussions around hosting Pupl on CENGN, can be put on hold
            due to this change
          + Revisit Pulp in the coming months as it offers advantages
            over Aptly that may still prove to be useful to have
      o 5.10 kernel
          + Underway forCentOS base
          + packaging is still RPM, it is work in progress for Debian
            transition
