To add on to this, someone off list suggested to me that in addition to
this we add to the workflow:
* When a rhel public beta happens we create a wiki page for:
EPEL x Update y Technical notes
* Maintainers are invited/encouraged to put any big changes in their
packages planned to land after that release in the notes.
* When RHEL X.Y comes out we meet up and maintainers ack their changes
and/or note that they want to wait for centos/sl or wish to just
defer.
* We announce with the notes wiki page and push those updates at that
point.
