Hi Greg,

I have 2 questions:

  1.  Will the OS switch over to Debian happen in STX 7 ?
[Greg]  ( I copied frank, bob, linda, mark ... as they can probably answer this more accurately )

I believe the answer is ... to be determined.
I suspect we will at least have a 'tech preview' -type capability for debian in STX 7 ... with the main STX 7 deliverable still being centos -based.
And then switching fully to Debian (and discontinuing support for centos) by end of year ( STX 8 )

... but again, frank/bob/linda/mark, can probably provide a more accurate view.
  2.  What's the rough plan of armada replacement? Is flux the final decision? It looks like a big change.
[Greg]  (copied bob to provide details here)

Just a reminder that this is a 'preliminary' feature list ... we are still confirming that we can resource this particular feature or not.

My understanding from some preliminary investigations and prototyping done is that this not as large as it looks.
And all of the external CLIs and APIs of the existing system application framework can be maintained without change.

... but bob can probably provide some additional info.

Greg.

Mingyuan

Mingyuan / Shuquan,

In today's TSC meeting we went thru the "initial" proposed features for STX 7.
i.e.  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/171PJAu9SykXm9h9Ny2IsZ8YMbhvEwOzuTbISWUMQhiE/edit#gid=1107209846<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/171PJAu9SykXm9h9Ny2IsZ8YMbhvEwOzuTbISWUMQhiE/edit*gid=1107209846__;Iw!!AjveYdw8EvQ!Pj3nACuHcGXnZR7uUnhjljovV-migEcxpBKf5VcdxJkTLL1YqdNzpemxPqaWjruBHdw$>

Let me know if you have any comments / concerns,
Greg.
