Will do.  I checked on a clean system and got the banner.

I noticed that it includes centos-stream.  It has a small
note that "some packages may be a bit ahead the Red Hat
Enterprise Linux N" but I wonder if that's really useful to
new mock users?  I'm not sure that makes it clear how likely
you are to have incompatible builds at any given point.

IMO, that belongs with the epel-next configs, not epel.  And
there's already a link from epel-next-$VER-$ARCH to
centos-stream+epel-next-$VER-$ARCH.

Do you think it would it be reasonable to propose dropping
centos-stream from the epel alternatives configuration?  If
not, what about making the warning a bit stronger?

I'm not asking you or anyone else to do that work.  I'm just
wondering if it has already been debated and firmly settled
before I spend time doing it.
