The problem is that the document is pre-bodhi and so doesn't fit the
current way updates are pushed. The current documents to cover updates
are:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL_Updates_Policy
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL_incompatible_upgrades_policy

It also contains a lot of people who aren't active in Fedora anymore
and people who might have changed their minds. I think that we have
pkgdb  and other tools supplants this.

I picked up most of these documents by looking at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Category:EPEL
I expect that is the top of the list as there are probably documents
with no EPEL tag that people think are canonical. If you or anyone
else know of any, please let me know.
