Re: trafficserver in EPEL?

GitHub issue for EPEL missing the trafficserver package is https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/issues/6855

The Fedora Engineering Steering Committee voted to retire it from EPEL (and Fedora Collection) after unsuccessful attempts to contact the package's maintainer, and because the package could no longer be built from source (details in https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/2080 ).

If anyone has interest in getting trafficserver back in EPEL, you can 
• Follow the steps at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers to become a Fedora Package Collection Maintainer
• Open an issue at https://pagure.io/releng to adopt https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/trafficserver

As a temporary workaround, there is a user who seems to be maintaining a COPR repo 7.x for EPEL 7 here:
  https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/hnakamur/apache-traffic-server-7/

Perhaps he can be convinced to take over as Fedora package maintainer.
