Ok, how will I know what test results are?

The test results were that we can keep running aarch64 in EPEL-7. Koji
assumes that same name packages are the same in every repository and
will fail if they aren't. Trying to do any build failed with the
CentOS-7 packages because the filesystem (and every other noarch RPM)
had different hashes. [I am pretty sure Dennis Gilmore will be saying
'yes and I told you this would happen when you wanted to do this 5
years ago'] At this point we will be disabling aarch64 from EPEL-7 and
freezing those repositories.
I will send out a separate announcement covering that.
