Hello folks,

In the planning of next Community build services, a new question came up.

In the past we never allowed EPEL repositories to be used as external
repositories for SIGs. Doing so, would allow to build against EPEL
packages and not duplicate the work for maintainers in EPEL/SIGs.

However it would mean also building against a moving target which can be
difficult if EPEL policies are the same as today.


1. What are the policies that EPEL would need to change?
2. What are the parts of EPEL that are a moving target compared to the continuous release method of CentOS? 

 
As EPEL 8 is also in the making it would be good to hear what SIGs think
about this specific issue.

Let us know !
