If we had infinite manpower this might be doable on request. As things are,
the people that want to do this need to volunteer to do work to make it
happen. A good start would be setting up external repos and try to
maintain some group of rawhide packages for the in support releases.
If this was succesful, I expect getting Fedora infrastructure to make it
more official would be possible.
Yeah, I'd leverage this:

set up a repo; use fs acls to let a group of people manage it together. See
how it goes.
