Hi all,

Small excerpt from an article on "The Register":

----------------------------------------------------------------------
The Rocky Linux Project has released version 9 of its RHEL-compatible 
distro and debuted its new build service.

Rocky Linux 9, codenamed "Blue Onyx", is here at last, some two months 
after the upstream distro on whose source code it is based. Its 
progenitor, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9, was announced on May 10. The 
best-known other modern CentOS Linux replacement, AlmaLinux 9, went into 
beta in April, and shipped just over a fortnight after Red Hat.

Some other RHEL rebuilds seem to be struggling with version 9, too. 
Oracle released Oracle Linux 9 this month, and some of the lesser-known 
projects still haven't released their final versions. For instance, 
Virtuozzo's VzLinux 9 remains in beta.

The Rocky Linux guys named their RHEL9 clone "Blue Onyx". How original! 
How groundbreaking! What a nice choice. /slow_clapping.gif

Eventually when 5211R is released, you may be able to run BlueOnyx on a 
Blue Onyx. I might even release a BlueOnyx 5211R package with two spaces 
in the name, so that you can install Blue   Onyx on a BlueOnyx that runs 
on a Blue Onyx. ;o)
