Hi,
Since Fedora 24 is out of maintenance, should we drop it?
It also makes me wonder keep fedora packaging as a whole? Greg - can you
have a look into how many people use it?
thanks,
Ohad
have a look into how many people use it?
According to the community survey, it's 3% of respondants that install
Foreman core on Fedora. Given the high turnout this year, I'd be
comfortable saying that it's safe to drop. You may wish to ask on -users
(or I can if you prefer)

Since Katello does not have builds for Fedora and it's extra work and
I believe not many users use such an old Fedora systems for
productions (there's CentOS of course), I am all for dropping it
completely. We are loosing the flexibility of being "on track" with
what's next for CentOS on the other hand but I think it is worth it.
Let's see what Greg comes up with. If we don't have the numbers, maybe
blessing from our community in form of poll or something could help us
to decide as well.
Mirek and Jakub are working on getting Copr builds up and running for
us and they were also trying to build against Fedora 26 but they hit
several issues as well, this should unblock them.

This gets a +1 from me due to the fact that Fedora 24 is now no longer in
support mode and the low percentage of users using Fedora in general. This
would reduce our overall overhead of support.

I went ahead an opened a PR to remove this in preparation [1]. We don't
have any official policies that I can think of for how long to let this
discussion sit before pulling the trigger.
As ewoud points out, we should split the "dropping Fedora all together"
into its own discussion. I think this one is a bit less controversial with
F26 out.

+1 on dropping F24 but I'm unsure about dropping Fedora altogether.
