If your goal is unofficial side packages for usability, it may be best 
to wait for the next generation VCS that we hope to deploy before FC7. 
It will be one of the distributed VCS, which is extremely well suited 
for these kind of temporary branches.  It could be done then with far 
less ugliness.

Please do the best you can with Bugzilla, Wiki's and 3rd hosted space 
until then.
