The dist tag is described on the wiki:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DistTag

Use of it is not mandatory, but most people do use it as it's a conveient way of
distinguishing packages built for different distribution releases.

If you've run out of time then it's probably better to close the review. Adding
packages to Fedora Extras is not a "fire and forget" process; packages need to
be _maintained_, so that bug reports get answered, security issues get fixed
etc. If you don't have the time to finish the submission process then it's
unlikely you'll have the time to maintain the package in the longer term, so
indeed it would be better off for someone else to maintain it.
