Also worth thinking about is rebuilding EPEL and ElRepo packages inside CentOS build system, so control is absolute that it will not mess up anything.
Or you could point people to the documentation and let them install the -release files themselves like has been done for years.
This is really getting ridiculous. If the bar of entry is so high that merely installing a 3rd-party -release file is too complicated or difficult people might care to revisit their career path. The distro has no real need to provide these -release files and the potential problems with doing so outweigh any benefits.
