Why not the contrary?

Right now, the tags and targets for Fedora releases in Koji are
fXX-candidate, which correspond both to the branch in dist-git, and to
the rpm dist tag.

As such, wouldn't it be even clearer if the tags and targets for EPEL in
Koji became elX-candidate?

This would have the added benefit of not breaking everybody's clones.
