This is not clear, so will Spacewalk in its entirety be discontinued or just 
Satellite 5?

The upstream project for Satellite 6 is "Foreman" 
https://theforeman.org/introduction.html... which (along with katello) uses a 
number of very different components to handle the provisioning/configuration 
mgmt/package management.

Also, is there a consolidated upstream project similar to Satellite 6?  Because 
from what I can see SuSE and Oracle (for their unbearable Linux) use Spacewalk 
or a similar structure, or am I mistaken?

We used to use spacewalk much more than we do now, but it does need to be 
caught up in patching.

EXTERNAL MESSAGE: Exercise Caution

What would be the implications of moving to the newer stack? Would it lose 
compatibility with previous versions?

My plan so far is to start migrating to the newer stack. Sadly the value of 
spacewalk is dropping due to cloud usage. And a lack of understanding what 
Spacewalk can do.

I have 2 spacewalk servers - one running 2.7 and one running 2.9. I was looking 
at the Spacewalk homepage yesterday, thinking about updating to 2.10, and saw 
that Spacewalk is being discontinued as of May 31, 2020??

 

What does that mean? It won't be available anymore? No new updates after that 
date? What does the future hold for Spacewalk after May 31, 2020?
