Suggestions:
1. Rename all your packages appropriately (e.g. append -heresy or -nodbus
or -whatever). This way your packages won't get unistalled if they lag
behind the official ones.
2. Add your repo to the unofficial user repos at the wiki
(http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unofficial_user_repositories)
3. Make x86_64 builds (remember, the main reason of UURs is convenience,
so that people don't have to compile themselves - otherwise ABS/AUR would
suffice)
4. Rewrite some stuff in "philosophy", being polite never hurt anyone.
