RHEL entitlements for EPEL maintainers

Some EPEL maintainers do not have access to RHEL to test and develop their packages. This pilot program allows active EPEL maintainers to request a RHEL entitlement (sometimes referred to as a RHEL subscription or Red Hat subscription or Red Hat Enterprise Linux subscription) to test or develop their EPEL packages. Note that this is a pilot program and could go away at any time.

In order to request your entitlement, mail kfenzi@redhat.com with:

*Your Fedora Account system name
*What EPEL package(s) you currently maintain
*Your RHN login. 

Note that you must be an active maintainer and have commited/built/pushed/updated some EPEL packages recently.

Further note that your entitlement will be active for 1 year/12 months. About a month from the expiration of your entitlement, you can re-request it in order to have another year. Please do so with lots of lead time to get it re-newed.
