So for EL8 we are using koji combined with mbs to build:
koji:

mbs (module-build-service):

Re: [CentOS] Roughly how many more months before CentOS 8.0 release?
Where can we learn more about the workflow and software used to build
CentOS RPMs and iso images?
This will be extremely helpful to everyone facing the same challenges of
building a custom distro.
Thank you all for the hard work on CentOS.

Well .. as explained before, it is a very irritative process .. (ie ..
do this, test, do that, test .. rinse, repeat).
But with where we are right now .. I don't think it will take more than
one more month to finish and test.
Obviously, we have people working on it every day and a QA team helping
us test what we are doing every day and we are still maintaining
CentOS-6 and CentOS-7 as well.
But we are making progress and we are getting closer.
There are many things that we need to work on .. including, but not
limited to a whole new build system (Koji AND MBS together), a
completely new way to maintain installer images and repos (via Koji
because of the modules).
A whole new repository paradigm (BaseOS, AppStream, Devel {things not
released but needed to build BaseOS and AppStream} .. etc, etc.
Anyway .. we are working on it very hard and we will have it released as
soon as we can.
We don't have date yet.

You've got the correct site to keep an eye on the status of the project. If you want to start working on EL8, I suggest getting a Developers Subscription and use the one free license to build a test system with RHEL8. -- Jonathan Billings ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
