The big issue with the confusion is that Fedora's bugzilla is Red Hat's bugzilla. So if I want to push an EPEL bug I report to "redhat". If I want to report a fedora bug.. I report to "redhat". This is one area where Red Hat's brand squashes Fedora's brand in people's minds. Squashes it dead. People will equate EPEL == Red Hat for many reasons.. but that is the one that stands out in my mind the most.
