Everyone can contribute to RHEL now!
summary
CentOS Stream makes it possible to submit real code changes to RHEL workflows: repositories land on GitLab, MRs trigger CI (Fedora-style, not GitLab CI directly) and maintainers decide acceptance. There are source-git repos for RHEL9 that keep upstream commit history and a src namespace with full sources, while RHEL8 uses SRPM-derived single-commit repos. About 2,000+ RHEL8 packages are already converted with a few hundred left; kernel development is fully open and package.project (package.dev) ties builds and CI together.
