Hi,
A bug is open for perl-XML-TreePP since July (for opening a epel 7
branch) with no reaction
(
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1123681)
I need this package so I'm volunteer to maintain it
This bug seems unnecessary. AFAIK all it takes to create a branch for a
package is a willing maintainer who's already a packager, in this case
you, to make a SCM request for it in the package review request

Make sure to list yourself as a "owner" of the new branch.
Its perfectly understandable for a primary POC of a package on the
Fedora branches to not want to deal with the EPEL packaging.
