Re: [HTCondor-users] [EXTERNAL] HTCondor 23.0.24, 23.10.24, 24.0.7, and 24.7.3 Released

[Tim Theisen <tim@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Matt,

We test with Apptainer and Docker containers. Right now, Singularity 
works well with HTCondor. If the code-bases diverge to a point where 
Singularity is not compatible with Apptainer, then we will have to 
evaluate its usage within the community and the effort to keep 
Singularity working well.
