Who and How is responsible for released installations packages and3rd party packs? (e.g. on https://yum.postgresql.org/9.6/redhat/rhel-7.3-x86_64/)

Hi PG Community,
In my company I found that PG Installation on deployed OS Images are takne from here: https://yum.postgresql.org/9.6/redhat/rhel-7.3-x86_64/
We are using PG 9.6.5 or 9.6.7 + pgpool + plv8 + others
Some or RPMs for CentOS are taken from that URL (PG Installation, plv8).
My question is:
Who is building RPMs and uploading to that URL? What are the criteria to build one RPM or other and their versions?
Why I am asking:
I saw on URL there are PG 9.6.8 and 9.6.9 - Are there maintained only latest 2 build releases?
plv8 - there are versions 2.0.0-1 and 2.1.0, since latest plv8 are already 2.3.7 and latest for 2.1.X is 2.1.3 contating major fixes
Thanks,
AlexL

Yes, older releases are deleted automagically.

Thanks all for responses.
Let me ask other dummy question:
plv8 RPMs were built by PostgreSQL Community for different OSes, or by those OSes vendors/community (e.f. RedHat/Debian, etc)?
And the same question about postgresql-server install packages themselves (RPMs, debs, etc)
Thanks in advance

RedHat, for example, also has postgres built by them and included in the distribution -- in RHEL7 it's v.9.2 but RedHat is known to patch code without changing version numbers. -- Dimitri Maziuk Programmer/sysadmin BioMagResBank, UW-Madison -- http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu

Community packages has wider range of supported PostgreSQL versions, and wider range of packages.

Gotta wonder if running this: https://github.com/clkao/docker-postgres-plv8/blob/master/10-2/Dockerfile and copying plv8.so out of the resulting image is the easy way out. -- Dimitri Maziuk Programmer/sysadmin BioMagResBank, UW-Madison -- http://www.bmrb.wisc.edu
