This is interesting, IMHO you should definitely submit yours to
repositories maintainers. Dag Wieer's repo points to newrpm as the
authority for Lua RPMs [http://dag.wieers.com/packages/lua/,
http://newrpms.sunsite.dk/apt/redhat/en/i386/9.0/RPMS.newrpms/], it
would be nice to have "one package to rule them all" ;)

But, why wait for FC2 to become gold?

Best,

Andre
