Hi,
 I maintain a red hat linux based packages set for duke university.
There are an array of other universities doing something similar. Mostly
they take red hat linux (whatever the current version is) and add/patch
things that they need for their environment.

I was wondering if you might be willing to post a message on your site
about a mailing list I've setup. It's called univ-linux. I'd like to
hear from any universities or national labs doing similar things to what
I have described above.

Right now there are a lot of people evaluating their decisions more
closely in light of the change in end-of-life/support policies from Red
Hat. I'd like to get more information from people in the same boat to
see if we can help each other.

The url to the mailing list is:
https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/mailman/listinfo/univ-linux


Thanks,
Seth Vidal

FWIW, I would love to see whatever packages this project creates make their way to RPMFind or Fresh RPMs or a similar repository (even the contrib directory on RedHat's server would be nice).
