in 6Server/en/RHSCL are a lot of more packages then 
in centos.org/6.7/SCL/, so - providing at least that 
packages that already were released would make sense.

I do not see at softwarecollections.org something that 
correlates for example with:

For sure others have also some CentOS SCL packages in use.
Therefore thanks in advance for your effort to closing the gap.
