Will do! I was also speaking today with some friends at XCP-NG about looking into an aarch64 port of XCP-NG. I’d personally be really interested in that :smiley:

That would be great. I would assume that there are many here that would like to know about that!

Hi Neil - with a name like that, I thought you might be a fellow Irishman!

I admit I did not plan enough for such a big event. I also missed most of Sunday morning due to picking up my wife from the airport… but alas… hopefully next year I can do some more planning and organize some Rocky Linux meetup, maybe!

Indeed - my dad’s family does come from there, albeit a few generations back. I’m told they dropped the O’ from O’Hanlon sometime during immigration :stuck_out_tongue:
