I agree. But sadly they still haven't progressed anywhere. The website seems offline completely currently, the milestone 6.0 still lists a huge list of open things:
https://github.com/collectd/collectd/milestone/18
Got any closer contact with them?
Could we create packages "collectd5" and allow replacing them with "collectd6" if users want? There exists no modules-support on EPEL I guess?

Hi everyone — just checking in on the status of building collectd for EPEL 10.
Is waiting on 6.0 still the approach?
Thanks a lot!
