--- Comment #3 from Paul Howarth <p...@city-fan.org> ---
Thanks for the response Ralf. I'm just following the process at the moment:
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-package-request/#fedora_packagers

Normally I'd expect you to ignore the EPEL request or, as you have done here,
state that you don't support EPEL, which would then lead us to
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-policy/#stalled_epel_requests in
which a releng ticket could be raised and an epel packager (who raised the
releng ticket) would:

(a) be assigned commit access to the package, which would enable them to
request the epel branch (this used to be able to be done by a provenpackager,
but not any more), and
(b) the EPEL bugzilla contact would be assigned to that person so you'd never
be bothered with EPEL requests for that package again.

I think that the EPEL bugzilla contact assignment is worth going through the
additional steps for, rather than just assigning somebody commit access
yourself, which would leave you as the EPEL bugzilla contact. There is a
process for doing that separately as well but that would be more hassle for
you.

So, in summary, I'd suggest that for the EPEL package requests you've received,
the best thing for you to do would be to note in the ticket that you don't do
EPEL and add a link to
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-policy/#stalled_epel_requests
such that the reporter can go through the rest of the process themselves
(assuming that they are packagers themselves, which is almost always the case
at the moment).
