[Cialug] Server Distros

[Shane Nehring]

Why do you think it's not stable just because it's slightly ahead of rhel
8? Fedora is the upstream of rhel/cent and it's very stable. I don't expect
cent stream to suddenly become less stable than fedora or even rhel. I
think the only real caveat to this is possible kernel abi changes, which
could happen between point releases in rhel anyway so it's not exactly a
new concern.
