Thoughts on adding RHEL UBI 9/10 images?

[albertescanes]

I was wondering if there are any plans or interest in adding RHEL UBI 9 and 10 support.

Unlike full RHEL, UBI packages are freely distributable.

Thank you.

So that seems to work basically without modifications. We could certainly try to use that as a base to then set it up the same we do CentOS/Oracle/Rocky/Alma/... but one could also just use the Red Hat image server directly.
