Most of the folks seem to go to the page to check the Packaging guide. More recent version of the packaging guide is actually available without need of authentication at [1].
We should ideally replace the link to the guide to direct folks to that page [1] and ideally also add a warning somewhere visibly that the page might stop exist at some point (as RHEL7 is getting EOL next year [2]). It's better if people learn to consume the guide from a different place before the web stops existing.
It should also be noted that copr-specific packaging instructions [1] are not included in the guide at RH [2].
Depending on whether copr will still be the approved way to build RPMs for inclusion in an official directory like this site going forward, copr-specific instructions may need to be incorporated into the RH version and be extended to cover spec files for main packages [3] in addition to that of the metapackage.
