Bryan - Please don't overstate this and make a problem where 
none exists.  There is an infinity of choices of which you 
list three.

Another couple of major paths exist; Several former 
'testers-list' folks offer ways; Joe Vos and Xos, David 
Parsley and Tao; my 'Wings' efforts on non-Centos arch's 
(Sparc, Mips/Netwinder, Alpha, PPC), PLD, Alt, and the list of 
RPM based full scope distributions goes on.

Nor does one _have_ to 'get involved' with either the 
RH-Fedora or Centos project to do effective distribution 
building, or add-on packaging.  There are independent 
packagers who have packaged for years and years outside of 
RH's Fedora and its required representations and paperwork to 
be a committer, outside of Centos.  Tummy, Matthias (pre-his 
move to RH Fedora Extras), Dag, again my longstanding archive. 
RPMForge offers a home.
