We would continue the "build on both epel8 and epel8-playground" and
this would make sure packages would be able to build on the newer
RHEL.
I find this less compelling because stream changes are supposed to be
minor release changes, so typically not abi/api breaks or big version
updates. In general epel8 stable packages should keep working fine when
the next minor 8.x release comes out, so I don't know that this would be
particualrly valuable.
We have had a python update which affected a lot of package,
and TUV have added lower versions of packages already in EPEL,
so the minor releases are not that trivial for packagers.
