EPEL is not covered by ELS, hence EPEL is already EOL.
If we are going to support distros that had their EOL 2½ years ago, I want
my Fedora 31 to 36 buildroots back! (Fedora 31 had its EOL only 6 days
before EPEL 6, Fedora 32 to 36 had theirs more recently.)
I am in agreement with Kevin on this. While there are people who might still want to build for their EL6 systems (including myself *cough*), I think there is a point where its usage of the COPR project's limited resources. If you really need to build stuff against end of life releases, then one needs to do the work themselves or join together with other people who can help pay for those resources.

I consider it a security risk and a no go.
