Future of x86_64-v2 support

Hello everyone,

I see RedHat seems to be going on with their plan to increase their baseline to x86_64-v3 for RHEL 10, do you have any plans to keep supporting older ISAs (specifically v2, as v1 seems to already have been dropped) with your next major release? Will you be investigating hwcaps like Fedora is doing?

TIA

What a great thing… thank you for the heads up! I am glad Alma will be supporting v2 for the time being.
