the EPEL effort. That's fine.  However, it is helpful for EPEL
contributors to know if certain Fedora contributors are interested in
EPEL or not.  For you own sanity, answering the question here one time
should prevent people from asking you again and again if you are going
to build for EPEL.


It is especially important for EPEL contributors to know when a Fedora

contributor is not interested in EPEL but maintains a package in
Fedora that might be a dependency of a package the EPEL contributor is
building for EPEL.  The EPEL contributor in this case can simply ask
the Fedora maintainer if it's okay if the EPEL contributor takes care
of the Package for EPEL and thus becomes a

package.
 
Two separate pages linked below try to track the information of which Fedora
contributors want to participate in EPEL or not:

Which Fedora Packagers are not interested in EPEL?

Summary

This page is used for tracking which Fedora Contributors are not interested in EPEL.

Details

Not all Fedora Packagers are interested in participating in the EPEL effort. That's fine.

If you do not plan to participate to EPEL, please add your accounts system username to this page.
It should help to prevent other EPEL maintainers from bugging you with EPEL related requests. :-)

The information is not binding, change your opinion at any time. It's just meant to help making things easier for the EPEL SIG and other EPEL packagers.

See the procedures for getting specific packages from Fedora into EPEL. Those procedures also indicate you shouldn't bother people who have said they do not want to participate in EPEL here.
