Howdy,
There are several "release" packages in the Extras repository for SIGs and third party repositories.
centos-release-virt-common centos-release-openstack epel-release
EPEL is a special case .. as voted on by the CentOS Board.
Other ones are SIGs .. which is the way to get a release file into extras.
Currently there are no guidelines for other third party repositories to be included, so I wrote this document.
I am certainly open to discussion .. however, there exists a way to make this happen. We start a Hosting SIG and those RPMs get put in there and built on our CBS.
What is this document missing? Are there any additional rules that need to be added for a third party repository to be considered? Also, if these guidelines are accepted, what does the approval process look like? Obviously repositories would be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, but who has the final say on whether a repository is approved or not?
