Re: Documentation for EPEL modules?

Shortly (Martin is in Cc to confirm):

1) Make a module:

$ fedpkg clone cmake3
$ fedpkg request-repo --namespace modules --exception cmake3-latest
$ fedpkg request-branch --namespace modules --repo cmake3-latest epel8

2) Writing a `modulemd` file based on this example [1]:

[1]
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/modularity/making-modules/defining-modules/

3) Build the module:

$ fedpkg module-build
