https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ELN-Extras

== Summary ==
ELN-extras will be a new build target and compose similar in behavior
to ELN, but closer to EPEL in function. It will be a place to prepare
and maintain packages that may be desired for EPEL N+1 while RHEL N+1
is still being incubated in ELN.

== Owner ==
* Owner: [[User:Sgallagh| Stephen Gallagher]] <sgallagh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
* SIG: ELN SIG <devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>


== Detailed Description ==
This will essentially be an extension of Fedora ELN, with the primary
difference being that the content in ELN-Extras will be defined by the
Fedora/EPEL community, while ELN's content is largely decided upon by
Red Hat management. This will offer users the opportunity to make sure
their applications will work on upcoming releases of RHEL as well as
providing a bootstrapping mechanism for EPEL. It will be far easier
and quicker to get a compose of EPEL N+1 out the door if the initial
packages have already been built for ELN-Extras.


== Benefit to Fedora ==
This Change will enable application developers to keep up with
impending changes in RHEL even before CentOS Stream becomes available
for that release. Additionally, it provides a bootstrapping mechanism
for EPEL, which will mean a much shorter gap between the launch of a
new RHEL major release and the availability of the EPEL repositories.

== Scope ==
* Proposal owners:
High-level tasks

1. Create the tags and targets in Koji (see the release engineering
ticket below).
2. Add support to Content Resolver for addon repositories [DONE]
3. Update the DistroBuildSync configuration to support building for ELN-Extras.
4. Configure ODCS to produce an ELN-Extras variant compose.

* Other developers: Aside from the release engineering tasks, anyone
who wants to have a package appear in ELN-Extras will need to add it
to the content set. This is not mandatory for any packager and we can
ship the ELN-Extras repository empty if we so choose.

* Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issues #10378]
* Policies and guidelines: N/A (not needed for this Change)
Documentation on how to add packages to the ELN-Extras content set and
how to consume its compose will be written as part of this Change.

* Trademark approval: N/A (not needed for this Change)
* Alignment with Objectives: Not specifically aligned with the
currently-active Objectives. Loosely related to the previous
Minimization Objective.

== Upgrade/compatibility impact ==
N/A, this will be an entirely new compose and thus has nothing from
which to upgrade.


== How To Test ==
No specific testing is required for this Change, though any general OS
and software management testing would be most welcome.

== User Experience ==
Fedora will make available a new add-on repository for ELN, maintained
by the Fedora Community.

== Dependencies ==
This should be self-contained from a dependency perspective. The
groundwork was already laid by ELN.

== Contingency Plan ==
* Contingency mechanism: We will not ship/advertise the existence of
the ELN-Extras repository.
* Contingency deadline: Final freeze
* Blocks release? No


== Documentation ==
Documentation will be written as part of this Change.
