EPEL steering and status update coverage is non-existant. That's IMHO, at
least.

One benefit of stepping down from FESCO and not lurking 24/7 on IRC is
that I can observe things from the perspective of an ordinary contributor
with the risk of being subscribed to the wrong mailing-lists.

So, what do I know about EPEL? extras.108.redhat.com is dead, at least on
the mailing-list. Not enough momentum [and decision-power] from those who
wanted to lift it off. EPEL owners.list in CVS is filled with a weird
choice of initial packages. Where those additions (and package versions)
are discussed is not known to me. EPEL builds have happened silently,
giving the impression of a private playground. There are builds waiting to
be published. But is it even known yet where to keep the repository? Is a
mirroring system in place? And while the Extras' pushscript can be
configured with a Config_EPEL.py module to push EPEL packages just fine,
most likely the interest in waiting for Luke Macken's update system work
to be usable seems bigger.
