Should ACS forward the cbStop callback to the receivers when coming from the unexpected StartState / StopState states?
- Stakeholders will read about the tickets and give feedback about the issue at hand
ACS wants to change lib/python/site-packages for the official lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages
- bash_profile.acs would use:
  python -c 'import os, sys; print(os.path.join("lib", "python%d.%d" % sys.version_info[:2], "site-packages"))'
- If needed an env variable could be set with that info. For instance PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES_SUFFIX
- It simplifies several things when installing packages using pip to INTROOT/INTLIST/ACSROOT without resorting to special tricks
- A good approach is to make use of a symlink during a transition period
  - We need to consider transition for ICT, but also for operations
RHEL upgrade scheme
- Starting with RHEL 9 the delivery cycle is going to be faster (~3 years)
- A discussion needs to be held probably in 6-18 months in the future

Maintenance (Bug-fixing / Improvements)
Obsolescence Management
