Karsten Wade, who has served on the CentOS board among other things, has
posted a
blog entry
on the CentOS change and its effects on users.
Providing our community with a solid, reliable distro that is good-enough for your workloads is a strong part of the CentOS brand. We’re confident that CentOS Stream can do this.

And while I’m certain now that CentOS Linux cannot do what CentOS Stream
can to solve the openness gap, I am confident that CentOS Stream can cover
95% (or so) of current user workloads stuck on the various sides of the
availability gap. I believe that Red Hat will make solutions available as
well that can cover other sides of the gap without too much user heartburn
in the end.” He is asking for input on what those solutions should
look like.
