My opinion:  extend the mandate by a year.  I prefer this over making
it an independent project at the moment because I don't see much
benefit in making it a completely separate project, and I would like to
see the commonality between Fedora and EPEL continue.

Or, in other words, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it."

NOTE: The above is solely my opinion.  I do not speak for FESCo, or
Fedora, or EPEL, or your mom.
