Yesssss, that's a problem. In this case, though, it really *is* directly related. > 2.EPEL has a hard enough time getting Fedora contributions with various > community members seeing it as a useless diversion.

So, the distinction is: EPEL is in Fedora because it's direct community ownership and maintenance. CentOS Stream is explicitly Red Hat controlled with a "patches appreciated!" approach. It's valuable to have both, but I also like the clarity of the separation. This all leads me to think that actually what we want is not "EPEL Stream" but "EPEL for Stream". (epel-for-stream? epel-4-stream? epel4s? no not that last one for sure.) -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ epel-devel mailing list -- epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to epel-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
