Hello all,
A few of items of discussion here:
1. Red Hat validates the shipped crypto modules in RHEL itself. CentOS
Stream is the evolving next release of those same modules. However,
because CentOS Stream is a developer-focused, evolving project, Red Hat
will not be validating the CentOS Stream modules themselves. Any issues,
bugs, functional or security problems discovered in CentOS Stream
(including the crypto modules) would indeed be filed as bugs, and
addressed in CentOS and RHEL.
2. While OpenSCAP and the profiles we build will be included in CentOS
Stream, they are treated as upstream from a support perspective. Our
work flow still starts with the Compliance As Code GIT repository
upstream, through CentOS Stream and into RHEL.
3. To be clear, code modifications and changes required to obtain
certifications such as FIPS and Common Criteria will certainly be
reflected in CentOS Stream (as all changes are, with the exception of
embargoed content). But the certifications themselves will only ever be
done on RHEL itself as that is the stable, long term supported release.

Hi Mark,
Related topic....
Do you know if the FIPS Software Modules/Libraries that RedHat
certifies RHEL8.x will be included in CENTOS Stream (similar to
existing CENTOS approach), or will CENTOS Stream have different Crypto
Software?   Also, any nuances or strategy changes we may need to be
aware of as to OpenScap and Benchmarks for CENTOS Stream?

Hi all,
An update :
* RHEL 8 Common Criteria is in process and we expect to complete and
announce in EARLY Q1 CY2021
* RHEL 8 FIPS is finishing now! Actually, two of our certs are in hand
now for RHEL 8 with three more in the final stages (in Coordination
state). We expect to push a press release when we have all of the
module validation certificates completed.
Again, expect that we will announce more publicly when we have
completed the certifications for each of these standards.
