There are a couple of things I think should change: * The DistTag should be versioned. Either .eln.elX (e.g. .eln.el9), .elnX (e.g. .eln9), or just plain .elX (e.g. .el9). * Likewise, I think the Koji tags should be versioned too. I've personally been burned enough times by not having versioned DistTags for personal rebuilds that I would strongly suggest you reconsider having unversioned ones. Finally, there is no adequate explanation for why ELN content can't go out to the mirrors like Rawhide content does. I'd vastly prefer that simply to have similar levels of availability as consumers of ELN content. I would prefer seeing it go to the mirror network like everything else. Beyond that, this looks pretty good!
