You probably want to have the component name in there. In the Storage
SIG we have Ceph, Gluster and NFS-Ganesha projects. Each project
provides a number of releases (with their own
centos-release-<project>-<version> RPM). That makes it easy for users to
select a version of a project, and stick to that without danger of
unexpected upgrades to a new major version.

See http://mirror.centos.org/centos/7/storage/x86_64/ for the structure
we use.

https://git.centos.org/rpms/centos-release-gluster/tree/c7-sig-storage-7
contains the .spec and .repo file to support all architectures, in case
you want to compare it with your centos-release-messaging package.
