The main EPEL packages have always been compiled against the official Red
Hat Enterprise Linux current package set. There is an initiative to have a
set of packages built against CentOS Stream to deal with .next issues we
see when RHEL updates from say 8.3 to 8.4.

EPEL whats version of RHEL will follow

Hi
So if I understand well, an EPEL package could be have to be desinstalled just because an update in Stream make it not compatible any more ?
Strange

Apologies, I've misread your email and I've mistaken "desinstalled" for "removed 
from EPEL repos". Disregard it.

All changes landing in Stream are already approved to land in a RHEL minor
release. So this is no different from what happens with the status quo when
an update happens in a RHEL minor release which requires an EPEL package
change.

Yes and no
Yes - If you are running CentOS Stream, and don't have the epel-next
repo enabled.
No - If you are running RHEL, Rocky, Alma, or even CentOS Stream with
epel-next enabled.
