- Currently EPEL only provides a buildsys-build rpm package at:

It would be nice to have also a buildsys-build comps group in the EPEL comps file, so one can easier build epel rpms with a gpg check enabled setup.
The EPEL comps file? We have one of those? Or would this be a separate yumgroups.xml type file specifically used by createrepo? Anyway, I think this sounds like a good idea.
- Add the rpm macros from
http://buildsys.fedoraproject.org/buildgroups/rhel5/i386/buildsys- macros-5-4.el5.noarch.rpm
to the epel-release package. In Fedora the dist macro is also in fedora- release. The reason for this is the same as for 1).
I don't see any reason not to do this.
