Congrats; also for making things so important that RH now hand-picks stuff from there to ship it directly.

/me meanwhile still remembers sitting in a meeting room in Bosten with some RH managers that were a bit worried about this EPEL stuff we were starting…

'"Starting now, the Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) extensions repository addresses the evolving needs of RHEL users by providing a trusted and reliable source of validated software content. […] Initially, we've hand-picked popular content from Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (#EPEL), and we'll be evaluating additional sources of content in the future. "'
