We've had this discussion. We aren't going to allow a forked kernel package. Please work with the kernel team to integrate this into the main kernel package.
Slightly related to this and maybe relevant for the -libre discussion:
Dave, what's the status of the "precompiled vanilla kernel rpms" for Fedora? There was the idea to put them in the unusual Fedora repos (which I'd prefer) or in a dedicated repo on your people pages. Was it forgotten? To many technical hurdles? -ENOTIME? Or do we stick to the "build one yourself using rpmbuild and the magic flag if you need one" solution?
Just wondering.
