Not off-topic at all!

Assuming you're willing to make it available under the same BSD-like
license as libvorbis and tremor, xiph would be more than happy to host
it in our svn (and to put up some web pages for it if you want to do a
formal 'release' version).

It'd probably be a good idea to have a page on the website listing
specific vorbis ports (at least the ones that are publically/freely
available) - interested in starting one? Alternatively, you could just
add it as a wiki page to the xiph wiki (wiki.xiph.org).

If you have it under a different license, then things might be
different - but let us know what license it is, it might be acceptable
anyway.
