Μaybe "we" could fill this gap? Describe this state of EPEL? Did you requested such missing packages? From the early on (EL8.0) I requested such EPEL packages, some fedora maintainers branched there packages into EPEL8. Even a request for a devel package was honored and the rpm was included by RH later in 8.1. This is a community, so communicate! Everything else is a product in ready state that must be paid.

In a lot of circumstances we do not invest a bit of time to participate in such community joint efforts and this has a significant cost for all of us in the long run.
Let's all be more active in our communities if we want them to remain strong, as Leon suggests.
