You have a couple options:

1) keep it in the same tree as pulp following the pulp release cycle

2) put it as separate git repo on fedora but link to it from the
   pulp wiki and mailing list. That's what we did with Thumbslug and
   Headpin. They are their own repos but linked from the Candelpin wiki.

   This way you get to have a clean repo people can contribute to and
   maintain it on a separate release schedule if needed.
