Fair point, although copr comes with certain disadvantages from my pov.

- Its a bit undiscoverable to the casual yum/dnf user, you have to 
know about it and it seems to me searchable only through the web 
interface.

- It fosters fragmentation of the efforts to eventually get something 
in Fedora. There is no bugzilla, and there can be multiple conflicting 
repos.


Thanks for the feedback.
