How is that different than just building them in EPEL and being done with
it.

Has something changed in the EPEL rules that would now allow us to ship
packages that conflict with the packages in base RHEL or a RHEL product
like RHGS (GlusterFS) or RHCS (Ceph)?

It also doesn't solve being able to ship multiple versions in separate
repos, e.g. gluster-5, gluster-6, and gluster-7. (I want to call those
Streams, but I think Streams is used for something different.)
