[EPEL-devel] Agreed: Dropping modules from EPEL-8. Not adding modules to EPEL-9

[Stephen Smoogen]

https://pagure.io/epel/issue/198

Today it was voted at the EPEL steering committee meeting to drop modules
from the EPEL-8 build. We will now begin the steps outlined to drop them as
cleanly as possible:

Steps:
1. Approval of this proposal by the EPEL Steering committee and any other
ones required.
2. Announcement of end of life to various lists.
3. Archiving of the modules on XYZ date to
/pub/archive/epel/8.YYYY-MM/Modular and pointing mirrormanager to that for
that
4. Make changes in bodhi to turn off reporting about modules for EL8.
5. Make changes in MBS configs to turn off building modules for EL8.
6. Make changes in PDC for EL8 modules
7. Make changes in compose scripts and tools to no longer cover EPEL-8
modules
8. Remove epel-8 modules from /pub/epel/8
9. Announce closure of this proposal and any lessons learned.
