There may be components of those upstream channels that make it into BaseOS. Given the python modules provided in those channels, they will definitely be needed in CentOS 8 or EPEL 8: I see python-boto3, python-botocore, and python-s3transfer, for example, in multiple RHEL 8 channels. Even if their segregation in multiple channels upstream was confusing or unwise, I'm not convinced it makes sense to try to merge them cleverly elsewhere in CentOS 8, especially if those channels ever differentiate when the individual modules are published upstream by RHEL. And since python modules *do* sometimes update, incompatibly with other python modules, I see a modest risk there. Since "BaseOS" is its special little channel designed for the minimum core of highly stable, base system components like rpm itself, bind, and bzip2, I don't see how the frequently updated AWS published python modules would be appropriate there. Do you see a way such dynamically updated components would be appropriate there?
