I had hoped we would have Beaker ported off TG1 long before now, and 
I was going to use the retirement of the EPEL7 TG1 stack as extra 
motivation to get it done, but realistically we will be depending on it 
for quite a while still, just like you Zhiwei.

So I can maintain the TG1 stack in EPEL7. I will start the un-retiring 
process for all the packages we need and post the exact list here.

Zhiwei, if you would like to co-maintain that would be a great help. I'm 
not able to sponsor you into the packager group, but I think you can be 
a co-maintainer without a sponsor (actually I'm not sure about that...)
