this is great! We can either do it via a SCL or just inplace distro
package replacement ( into the Plus repos ). Since you have already had
a stab at doing this with the 1.9 git on scl's - that might be the best
route to take here as well.

Cool !

I'm just wondering what are the duty and stuff for being a maintainer (esp. all security related things).

Rebuild an existing package is a thing, being maintainer of a new version is different.

I'm more tempted to have it as an SCL as those packages should be usable on RHEL too.
