I also think we don't need it. We provide Fedora/RHEL builds and support
for community for free. If anyone (from our community) is willing to
operate Katello on gems, no issues from our side. We will support them
to maintain gems, do security patches or whatever they need.

But we will carry on with providing security patches the usual way via
RPMs.
