[CentOS-devel] SIGs: Possibility to drop EOL content at 6.10 release time

RHEL 6.10 was released today and building CentOS 6.10 has just started. 
This would be an excellent time to remove any EOL software you may have 
floating around on mirror.centos.org.

SIGs should explicitly state which content they want copied over from 
6.9 to 6.10.

I'd imagine that for example openstack-juno could be dropped because it 
went EOL in 2015-12-07 (so actually prior to CentOS 6.8's release..). Is 
there some other content that could be dropped?

If SIGs want to transfer some of their packages from 6.9 to 6.10, please 
let hughesjr know. You can probably simply reply to this message to let 
people know of your decision. Content to be transferred over to 6.10 can 
be specified either by directory name, or by individual package names.

There are also various centos-release-* packages in extras, 
http://mirror.centos.org/centos/6.9/extras/x86_64/Packages/ , perhaps 
some of those could be trimmed as well.

You should also communicate to your users in advance that the EOL 
packages will disappear, and if necessary, instruct them to migrate to a 
newer supported version. Having instructions for that procedure 
published somewhere would be nice.

The old content under 6.9, including any EOL content, will be archived 
to vault.centos.org, and that content will be available in the vault 
indefinitely. The 6.9 directory on mirror.centos.org will be emptied 
some time after 6.10 is released.

For reference and inspiration, here are some directories from 
mirror.centos.org, including both up-to-date content and potentially EOL 
content. SIGs should review the list to make sure these directories can 
be copied over to 6.10 when that time comes. Making the decisions now 
would save a bit of time at 6.10 release time.
