- openSUSE conference coming up in Nürnberg, Germany and Sarah is giving her Collaboration instead of Competition talk: https://events.opensuse.org/conferences/oSC22/program/proposals/3700
- Sarah launched a discussion about additional hardware possibilities, beyond what RHEL, SUSE, and Ubuntu have proposed and are collaborating with IBM on, community input from what the distros are seeing
- If the hardware has $x feature, it may be interesting to see $y business cases realized
- Do new HMCs have optical drives for DVD-based installs? Interesting question for installation / maintenance from the distros.

- Ulrich checked - upstream claims to support it, a patch went in in March 2021
