This is what I have on my ticket.  Respond soon (by tomorrow end of day) if
you think I need changes.

Subject:
Notice: <package> will be automatically retired from epel<major> when RHEL
<major>.<minor> is released

Comment:
Thank you for your work maintaining <package> in epel<major>.  This package
has been considered important enough to Red Hat's customers that Red Hat
has decided to promote it to be an official part of RHEL.  It will be part
of RHEL <major>.<minor>.  When that is released, EPEL automation will
remove <package> from epel<major>.

Troy
