# Core SIG

The Core team is responsible for the AlmaLinux OS distribution itself. This includes, but is not limited to building new distribution versions, delivering updates, core tooling development, and maintenance.

# How to Join

Joining is easy! You can show up to a meeting, pick up an issue from the list by assigning it to yourself, or ask questions in chat! Not every contributor wants to be a part of the SIG, but if you do, joining is simple.

Where we chat

The Core SIG uses the SIG/Core (opens new window) chat channel for communication.

We meet on Google Meet every other Tuesday at 16:00 UTC. If you would like to join, join the chat and ask for an invite!
