Thanks for all the work! I've some personal experience of shifting to major new releases, and the adventures involved in re-engineering the build environments for compatibity. You've my sympathy.

Would it make sense to have a "yum-conf-epel-release-beta", to be obsoleted by an upcoming "yum-conf-epel-release"? It's an important repo for "mock" and a number of Perl modules, at least for me. I'd be happy to submit a spec file in a day or two, if it would help.

I toyed with that idea, but ultimately in conversation the EPEL folks don't think the wait will be overly long for non-beta status. I don't think it'll be necessary.
