hi
with 7.1708 almost here, now would be a good time for the SIG's to think through if they want to lose existing obsoleted code from mirror.centos.org and have it moved to vault.
When we do a new release, the tree for this version is built up manually and then pushed, so its a good convenient time to think about what the users are looking at, and perhaps trim the repos ( we typically will do this for centosplus/extras etc as well )
please get in touch with Brian or Thomas or myself for details, ideally open a request on bugs.centos.org/
regards
Will we have to untag packages we don't want from out -release tags, or will that be something that is automatically done? Also, how about our -testing areas? Can that be part of the same ticket?

for the release tags:
1. for the tag's you are trimming, we wont need anything in the tickets. just go ahead and trim them.
2. for any tag you want to drop entirely, we will need a ticket in bugs.centos.org ( I'll let Brian detail what he needs for that and where etc ).
for the -testing tag's its a lot harder. were doing OK for disk space there, so unless there is a good call on trimming / deleting there, I am inclined to let it grow as needed for now. Does that work ?
