We already discussed this shortly.

In a separate repo we could

store the kiwi file
release alpha and beta versions for testing
release additional helping files
host the planned doc "home server: a beginner's guide"

If we do so, we should additionally decide whether we want to use separate tickets or prefer to continue with one ticket location.

My feelings: seperate repo: yes

but we continue to use server/tickets for ticketing. Keeps everything in one place.

I don't think it makes sense to separate the kiwi definitions from the larger fedora-kiwi-descriptions repository. We already have the server subfolder where your definitions live.

In light of @ngompa's comment: let's put the kiwi file with the rest of them and a separate repo for our testing releases.

Still use our single ticketing repo, as it can provide a good overview of all of the projects we have going at this time

Regarding Kiwi definitions: In the long term the kiwi file has to be included into the releases, of course. But during development it seems not appropriate because we can't change it or our own. So we can't keep it current during development. And we have no available development area in Fedora infra (according to nirik).

AGREED: We create a separate repo for home server

We still have to decide whether we want to have a separate ticket space or keep integrating it into the main ticket area.
