Please don't forget to let me know when it's time to start thinking about pushing this down to F27. And maybe F26. And as far as I can tell it should work with only minor modification in EPEL7 (via epel-rpm-macros).
I don't know about EPEL6, but we use it as-is in EL7 and it works just as well (except maybe for the %autosetup bits but IIRC that's autosetup which is broken in EL7).
It's a good idea to let people play with it in fedora-devel maybe a month, in case I missed something, but from a technical POW I'm prety sure it could be merged up to EL7 now.
Now that the appropriate observation time has passed, and people have not find new problems (in fact they found scenarii that worked I had not thought about) can you please merge
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/redhat-rpm-config/pull-request/18
and push it to stable?
The Go macros need it and Fedora Go maintainers now want to fork forgemeta if redhat-rpm-config does not make forgemeta available in the Fedora stable versions they target, which would all make a huge mess. I guess it's been too successful ;).
