I understand people being pissed off (I am right now), but the right
answer to repotags not being considered for epel is _not_ to drop them
but to _keep_ them. In the hope (as with distro tags) that eventually
the advantages will become obvious and they are adopted. Or not.
Dropping them is ensuring that can not happen. Not a good choice if you
indeed believe they are useful.
It is unfair that EPEL can get away with it because everybody else has
repotags. For that reason I am happy to be the repository without the
repotag !
Kind regards,
