Interesting question. My personal opinion is that if we do it at all, yes
we should forge a new spec for RHEL 7+ and Fedora 21+ which does away with
all the legacy. And that it would bitrot quickly unless we actually use it.
And that maintaining the spec is the bigger problem than providing the
builds.

Thus, probably: "No."
