So if we don't ship our own python but instead rely on the compat- 
python24 module we could be accepted to EPEL?

Will EPEL be included in /etc/yum.repos.d in future Fedora releases?

If compat-python24 is promoted into Fedora proper would that then mean  
we would be a candidate for inclusion in Fedora proper?

Is there any likelihood that compat-python24 will be promoted into  
Fedora proper?

Sorry for all the questions...  Just trying to better understand all  
the different groups, projects, and policies.  :)

Thank you all for your help so far in understanding the environment.
