It's not been something thats a priority. ;(
I think the way to do it would be to drop making drpms from the bodhi
pungi and setup a script to manage them: create them, make the repos,
keep N days of old ones from the last repos, etc. I'd be happy to help
interested folks with requirements and such, but I don't think I can
commit to fixing it.
I remember when drpms landed I heard people say they choose Fedora
because of them. That may have changed over the years I guess. :)
and there have been only 2 or 3 reports about how few drpms exist
in the last few years (ie, most people didn't really notice).

Yeah, understand...
