Hi @armingdev,

This would be a question for Digital Ocean’s Dev team. Unfortunately, this forum is for answering technical questions which we might know the questions.

Anyway, please let us know what the answer of Digital Ocean is regarding this matter as soon as you have one.

Kind regards, Kalin

@DigitalOcean - It’s quite clear CentOS are taking their sweet time with Cloud images for CentOS 8, and people are asking in their mailing list what the hold up is, with no response. All is silent it seems. No response given by the CentOS team as to why its delayed or any form of ETA. The silence is deafening.

Here’s an idea - make your own images for your customers instead of waiting on the CentOS team to provide some.

Hi everyone. They are waiting for CentOS team to release Cloud images first. So, we are on hold until CentOS release version 8 of cloud images.
