It's FOSS News · Sponsorships Seems to Be Coming to Arch Linux!A proposal looks to introduce a transparent sponsorship process to Arch Linux.

All open source projects can use more contributions, so here are some places where you can start for @rockylinux !

This page has a list of active Special Interest Groups, like the Cloud or Security SIGs. There's also a list of areas where you can lead the change in making a SIG for it, like for embedded systems or storage applications!

Thank you to @rockylinux for being a silver sponsor for Flock!

Rocky Linux's work on RISC-V enablement is one of the many ways they have been active members of the community! See how they worked in Fedora to improve RISC-V support and then brought that to Rocky Linux 10.

@Linux @eu_os

I think it would be helpful if in your text on your codeberg account, you introduce the problem better that you identified and how you think it should be solved.

I understand that you prefer if a legal entity is registered in the EU. I tell you that Microsoft has Microsoft Ltd. in Dublin. This alone is not enough to keep the exist costs low.

A number of bright people from across the world have thought previously about these questions. The outcome is #almalinux and #RockyLinux.

🚨 It’s official: RISC-V will be joining the Rocky Linux 10 architecture lineup!

This milestone wouldn’t be possible without the incredible work of the Fedora RISC-V community. We’ve built on their upstream-first foundation to bring riscv64gc into the Rocky family—alongside x86_64, aarch64, ppc64le, and s390x.

Big thanks to @fedora, @RISC-V International, and everyone helping push open hardware forward.
