Not that I'm aware of.
Is there a discription of how to create your own RPM repository for
distrubution?
This could be documented a little better... You should create a GPG key
for rpm signing:

After building rpm packages, use "rpm --addsign" to sign them.
A yum repository is simply a web-accessible directory, typically with a
"packages" and a "source" sub-directory. Move your signed packages
there, and then run "createrepo_c /path/to/dir". createrepo_c is a
faster version of the createrepo tool, which does the same thing.
The first package you want to build is probably a "release" package for
your repository:

You can also sign your repo metadata:

What about updates of these RPM?
You can put updates in the same repo, or a separate repo, whichever you
prefer. Just copy them and run "createrepo_c" again. When clients run
an "update" they'll refresh their repo information and update to newer
packages.
