Hi Felix,
First off, thank you for maintaining the EPEL7 nginx, especially when you
no longer use it on EPEL7.
To me, it looks like you have addressed everything you should in the email,
and there shouldn't be anything else you need to do.
That being said, I've missed things before so maybe give it a few days
before you consider this a go-ahead.
Do you already have a build somewhere that people can test?
