Hi Nate,

Would it not make sense to focus development/testing efforts on CentOS
Stream, in order to have earlier xCAT support for the next (minor)
release of RHEL? I could be wrong, but that's what I had thought part of
what CentOS Stream was supposed to be for, i.e. a development target for
upcoming RHEL...

Cheers,
Matt
