What would it take to nudge this project (oVirt Node and hosted-engine) towards Rocky Linux 9 or maybe Alma Linux 9?

Rocky is committed to the full 10-year life cycle of RHEL. Whereas CentOS Stream 9 ends when the "full-support" cycle of RHEL ends and RHEL's maintenance-only begins. This means that CentOS Stream 9 will EOL in early 2027; just three short years away.

Maybe someone's arm at Rocky can be twisted to push oVirt in their direction.

Thoughts?

No, current engine appliance is still el8 based. You can either use a standalone engine (no hosted engine) based on el9 or you'll have to patch the appliance to build on top of el9 instead of el8 https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-appliance/issues/94 <https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-appliance/issues/94>

    I see it documented there now too.  When I checked just a couple weeks
    ago, it still said the engine was based on CentOS Stream 8.

    So does this mean that if I start with a fresh v4.5.5 oVirt Node
    (CentOS
    Stream 9) installation and use it to deploy the hosted engine, the
    engine will also be Stream 9.???  If yes, wonderful.

 mentions "The oVirt Engine must run on Enterprise Linux 8.7 or later." which well... not 
explicitly says it but includes 9.x
