         - Rough week for CentOS builds
             - golang issue changed from intermittent failure to persistent failure. This was addressed.
             - Some upstream python package (packge-name: requires) changes also affected the builds.
         - Managed to have one green build on June 14. But now investigating a failure today related to a missing fluxCD package.
         - Also working to address some infrastructure mirroring issues.
     - Debian builds
         - Intermittent failures seen this week; mostly related to packaging issues

             - Most recent build is ongoing.
     - Need to chop up build logs into smaller bits in order to make it easier to find build errors ... current log crashes/hangs browser
- Sanity

Open Requests for Help
- Incorrect public key for signed starlingX 5.0 iso:  http://lists.starlingx.io/pipermail/starlingx-discuss/2022-June/013072.html
     - Action: Greg to reply.
- StarlingX on AWS Bare Metal Servers: http://lists.starlingx.io/pipermail/starlingx-discuss/2022-June/013087.html
     - Greg provided a response. 
     - Conclusion is that AWS Bare metal servers doesn't support setting up L2 networks, so it can't run StarlingX.
