FYI, in the past weeks I took care of the main WhishList -- if something
got added I mailed the Fedora owner normally.

I'd say: check via
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/acls/bugzilla?tg_format=plain
who owns those in Fedora. I suspect at least some of the packages owners
have EPEL packages already, but didn't get around to these ones. Send
those a mail in private asking for their plans and I suspect you can
shorten the list a bit.

For the remaining ones: a second mail can't hurt. Reminder (to everyone
that plans to do something like this): before sending such mails please
check this page http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/ContributorStatusNo
If the FAS username of the package owner please don't send mails
regarding participating in EPEL to them.

I'd say so. I will mail the owners then. But you can do it yourself as
well. The template I use can be found on:
