Kevin, I submitted a request for condor via bugzilla as you suggested below.  It is assigned to matt redhat com .  We'll see how it proceeds...

Thx, Lee

File bugs on them and ask the maintainer: would you like to maintain
this in EPEL as well? or would you prefer someone else do it?

See: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Getting_a_Fedora_package_in_EPEL

That should get directly to the maintainer and be a good record of the
question being asked. :)
