It's a newly released platform for building personal RPM repositories.
 Somewhat analogous to Ubuntu's PPAs.

Interesting.
We need to think and see how (and if) to integrate it with the desktop fedora experience. I wouldn't want gnome-software searching in all of these automatically.
Unless we get COPRs with proper metadata (an archive of all the appdata files they contain, perhaps) and meaningful description, I can't see a way for us to implement a good enough UI to browse and enable those from within the desktop environment.
