Me neither.  More on this below...

re:

Very good.  My McIDAS development environment is CentOS 8.3.2011.
We (Unidata) totally skipped CentOS 8 in favor of CentOS 8 since it
will have a longer support life.

Quite frankly, we are not running the mysql-based GRIB2 decoding.
Why?  I kept an eye on what was being accessed on through the
ADDE servers we operate, and there were _no_ accesses for model
data for over a year, so I simply turned off the processing.
Our servers (which in aggregate are serving on the order of 1.5 TB
per day) are used for a) satellite imagery, b) POINT data, c) radar
data, and d) TEXT data.

Cheers,

Tom
