Since you'll handle the repository and releases, you are governed by the licenses of your dependencies one of which is Apache Beam that has an ASF 2.0 license. The ASF 2.0 license is fairly liberal as to what you can do and if you have specific questions you'll want to reach out to ASF directly and/or your own legal counsel.
I believe we have a spot on the Apache Beam website and/or wiki where we highlight community projects but where that is escapes me at the moment.
