Hi Steven,

Currently there is no real process, as packages landing in EPEL are then
(once a week)  put in the build queue for armhfp, and it's so a "blind
and automatic" process.

I don't think we'll ever have a "release" repository (at this point) so
if you don't see an EPEL pkg there that you need, it's probably better
to ask on this list, and investigate why it didn't build (through the
available build logs on
https://armv7.dev.centos.org/rpmbuild/epel-pass-1/) and ask on the list
to try a rebuild and help debugging why it didn't build.

Cheers,
