Well, I'm not sure how to rephrase that... Basically we want to know
if there are any non standard conditions to look at, ie: 

- You are not the owner and want to maintain in epel. Did you contact
  the fedora owner and wait and/or hear back that they didn't want to
  maintain it?

- Is the package a dead package you are bringing back?

etc. 

You don't need to add additional text for normal vanilla regular
requests. It just saves cvsadmins the time to ask you what you want.
