As mentioned on the conference call, fedoras koji can be used as an 
alternate source of EPEL rpms that have aged out of the repo. It retains 
copies of past build products longer than the repo itself.
In light of recent issues seen by the folks in China, I thought I'd post 
some candidate code on how we might exploit this.
     https://review.openstack.org/591022 Use kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org 
as a backup rpm source.
Rather than asking folks to manually download missing files, this 
attempts to do so automatically.  Files downloaded through this 
mechanism would be listed in .../output/centos_(s)rpms_found_K1.txt.  
Such downloads should still be investigated, and possibly flagged on 
storyboard as requiring upgrade or a new source.
