Andreas - Can you give me admin rights or collaborator on epel* branches so that I can request an EPEL9 branch?  Thanks!

I can go ahead and push this. 

Co-maintainers always welcome of course...

Thank you all for your work on this. I really appreciate it!

As a side note, i did look into trying to do the package myself before posting the bug here. I had a bit of a hard time digesting how to make it happen.

Do you have any guides, tutorials, etc on how to make an EPEL package so i can potentially do this myself next time?

Thanks,
Nick

Yeah, take a look at: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/epel/epel-package-maintainers/

Hopefully that has the info you are looking for. ;) Further questions feel free to ask... the epel-devel mailing list, or the #epel irc channel on chat.libera.net or epel:fedoraproject.org on matrix should all be good.

FEDORA-EPEL-2023-98339607a8 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 9 stable repository.
