>From my perspective the epel-testing repo fills this gap somewhat. The advantage to epel-testing is that I can get newer packages, and it is very clear to me what is heading towards stable. We even have feedback mechanisms already in place to support communication back to the maintainers. However many intermediate repos we put in place, these unstable updates *have* to be allowed to go into epel-stable eventually. Otherwise, we put epel-stable users at risk for unpatched security flaws. - Ken _______________________________________________ epel-devel-list mailing list epel-devel-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/epel-devel-list
