On March 31, 2017, Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 5 will move out of "Production Phase 3". At this point various rebuilds will be ending support for EL-5 and EPEL will be archiving EPEL-5. What this means is the following: 1. EPEL-5 (/pub/epel/5/, /pub/epel/testing/5/) will be copied to /pub/archive/epel/5. 2. Mirrors that mirror archives will pick up EPEL-5 in it new location. 3. Mirrormanager will point to those location as the canonical places. 4. Koji will be set to no compose for EPEL-5. This effectively stops builds from getting 'pushed' to the trees. 5. The data in /pub/epel/5 and /pub/epel/testing/5/ will be removed and will disappear from mirrors. Because 2017-03-31 is a Friday, these changes will occur during the next week.
