You don't need that. You can just tell them to use Fedora and install the printrun package (example). If there was a spin for every activity out there, Fedora would have literally, and i mean it, thousands of spins.

You just need to watch out for those binary executables and such, because Fedora Guidelines are quite strict about inclusion of binary, patented or non-free software.

Once you get involved, we can work out a way of distributing the profiles, be it RPM packages or not.
