Well, the discussions have proven that EPEL considers itself upstream.
And that a multi repository world is not wanted.
imo, not true and irrelevant to boot. Anyone saying otherwise is
selling something. And I'm not buying it.
Please don't let the voices of a select few speak for all of EPEL.

That is what happened with Fedora Extras. RPMforge has been
badmouthed
because it was not upstream and a lot of FUD has been spread.
That's in the past, *long* past. Again, not true anymore, yada yada.
Please, since repotags aren't a blocker for you, can we *please* try to
focus on the more-important issues that are?
