I'm not sure what you're asking.  sources.redhat.com is still going to
be the main repository for all of the cygwin distribution and mirrors
will be downloading from sources.redhat.com.

So, you'll still need to have your package approved and uploaded to
sources.redhat.com if you want the package to be part of the
distribution.

I can't see how that could possibly change.  We can't rely on other
systems to be part of the official distribution.
