Agenda items:
1. OS Distro (Mark)

  *   NOTE: Debian Bullseye was released (Aug. 14th, 2021)

  *   5.10 kernel WRT CentOS - stable updates still pending, plan for  in the next week or so

  *   Changes continue to be sent for review on Gerrit (thanks everyone for providing reviews and feedback)

  *   Debian directory structure refinement continues

  *   real world use is providing insight to support current structure or push for changes

  *   expect refinement for a while yet

  *   A spec will most likely be sent in the coming weeks to wrap up this activity and finalize a v1.0 of the design (Bob)

  *   The STX tool is gaining a 'build' module to wrap typical build operations, will be sent for review once it is in good enough shape

  *   Followup work such as specs for Installer and/or Ostree will be worked on over next month or so (Bob and Mark)

2. Python3 (Bob)

  *   Work on py3 with CentOS 8 has hit the end of its usefulness, activities will be shifted to Debian

  *   Focus on supporting packages for things like Puppet and Ansible to start (to enable initial standup of a core system)

  *   Work on py3 will provide further feedback for things like the build system and Debian directory structure

  *   py3 v3.9 gates transition for Gerrit underway (see mailing list "Support for Python3.9" email)

3. Misc

  *   Kernel 5.10 refinement underway - since the kernel version uplift is rather large the available Kconfigs have changed quite a bit, please provide any feedback on the .config used for either the standard or low latency kernels

  *   Please continue to provide feedback on the Debian folder structure via the mailing list thread "Layout of the debian folder"
