Lalatendu Mohanty -  Running a SIG in CentOS
Channel: RedHatCzech
Date: 2015-02-08

Special interest groups in CentOS is a way to build a specialized variant of CentOS to solve specific set of issues. SIGs have the freedom to add more cutting edge software or rebuild existing packages depending upon the requirement. This provides an excellent opportunity for the community to get best of both worlds i.e. stability of CentOS and newer technology from open source projects. This also creates a new way to consume technologies within CentOS ecosystem. In this session I will explain the process required to start a SIG along with little bit history and background. This session should give enough information to users so that they can get started with SIG.
