And it's too obscure. Instead, I just retired the two EPEL branches.
Did you at least check if the packages were used by something else? ...
And as I said, a new self-service UI for setting bugzilla overrides
for Fedora branches vs. EPEL branches is being worked on for
src.fedoraproject.org.

With pkgdb I could see who maintains which "branches" and which branches
exist. With this new web UI, I don't find where I could take a look at
who maintains which branch. For some packages I see socalled "members", a
"main admin", an "admin", people with "commit" access, but
without any idea
who maintains which branches.
That's because per-branch maintainership is no longer "supported", as
mentioned on recent other threads.
It seems the "support" in PkgDB was also a "lie", because BugZilla
doesn't even support default assignees per-branch.
All this would not even interest me at all, but almost a week ago
someone
from Red Hat Security decided it would be a good idea to assign to me
(without asking first) ancient EPEL tickets, which are almost five years (!)
old. Apparently, no proper tracking of those tickets has been done for a
very long time. It is entirely wrong and unexpected to assign those EPEL
tickets to me only because something under the hood knows only a default
assignee or such.
For new tickets, I'd understand this. But for old tickets to get
reassigned to you - I agree that that's weird.
I wonder who the previous assignee was, and why it was decided to
reassign now, after 5 years?
