I have no problems with harsh however, RHEL-6 isn't GA at this point,
I'd say that we spam them one last time with "Any packages not built
by the EPEL meeting on October 11 (date pulled from thin air) will be
orphaned"
Just remember that there are still packages missing from the EPEL builders,
e.g. fftw, that are preventing other packages from being built.
