My understanding from long ago when we last discussed this was: 

EPEL will not ship anything that's available in src.rpm format under 
ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/6Server

Now, some of the newer channels like RHS were not there when we
launched EPEL6, so if lots of people think we should revisit this, we
could. 

Some data: 

EPEL6 currently builds against the following RHEL channels: 
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taginfo?tagID=140

Server, Server-ha, Server-optional, Server-lb. 

In the past some teams have asked us specifically to include their
packages even though they are in another channel (I think spacewalk
folks asked for this) as they used EPEL as an early testing branch.
