You'll also be able to catch talks from benny Vasquez, AlmaLinux OS Foundation Chair, at OLF and All Things Open.
At OLF benny will be speaking on **Saturday, September 9th at 10:00 a.m. US Eastern Time** on "The Future of AlmaLinux: Building without Following." Since our inception, AlmaLinux OS has been an exact duplicate of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. With Red Hat's shift away from sharing the full building blocks on [git.centos.org](http://git.centos.org/), we have been hard at work to define a new, reliable path forward.

At All Things Open, benny will present "Building AlmaLinux OS without RHEL sources code." In this talk, benny will talk about the plans to plot a path forward for AlmaLinux OS after Red Hat has moved away from hosting RHEL source code on git.centos.org. You'll learn what the project has been doing since June and what AlmaLinux is planning for the future.

## What is the status of security updates?
Prior to Red Hat's policy change, when RHEL published a package update of any sort (security or bugfix), they published the corresponding source code into a [repository](http://git.centos.org). Then AlmaLinux integrated the update into our own build and test system, produced a new RPM, and published it to our repositories.

The first part of that chain is now broken. Only Red Hat customer accounts can access Red Hat Software, and it is a violation of the Red Hat Subscription Agreement to re-distribute Red Hat Software, which includes using it in a downstream rebuild.

Great news about our mirror service! Our mirror service is what powers distribution of ISOs, packages and updates across the world. A while ago we developed and started testing a new geolocation-based mirror service which helps you get software faster and easier based on where in the world you are and what the closest source is. Thanks to all those who were involved in testing--It’s now official: our new mirror service is coming online on August 4th at 7.00 UTC.
