hmmmm, perhaps as sentence #1 then?

Pat

Good idea.  I think if we put a modified version of Kevin's as the first sentance, we get.

 
Subject:
Notice: <package> will be automatically retired from EPEL <major> when RHEL <major>.<minor> is released

Comment:

This issue is purely informational, you do not need to take any action.  Thank you for your work maintaining <package> in EPEL <major>.  This package has been considered important enough to Red Hat's customers that Red Hat has decided to promote it to be an official part of RHEL.  It will be part of RHEL <major>.<minor>.  When that is released, EPEL automation will remove <package> from EPEL <major> and close this bug.
