EPEL RFC: Strategy for python3 versions

[Pat Riehecky]

I'm circling back around to this with the recent publication of 
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/redhat/linux/enterprise/7Server/en/RHSCL/SRPMS/python33-1.1-13.el7.src.rpm 
and friends.

Just looking to ensure everyone who cares about python3 on RHEL7 saw 
these.  Hope this information is useful.
