To what extent and for how long? At some point you as an individual will
be rolling your own packages or relying on a third party if the core
needs to move on for others. Fedora is set up to accommodate this. 

As many distros have shown you can't be all things to all people. You
can only stretch Fedora so far before it becomes something else, and
starts to suffer in other ways.

Should Red Hat be willing continue to devote resources longer than you
are on a joint project? If this is a community project, relying on
community contribution at some point is going to happen.
