I'd guess the best place to start would be a GeoServer community module. See http://docs.geoserver.org/latest/en/developer/policies/community-modules.html If you're willing to shepherd it and may continue to work on it then we can probably get you approval pretty easily, and then you just get a space on the GeoServer svn to play with. And others would then be able to help expand it. If you have very little time then you could just attach it to a patch and hope someone else might pick it up. But an arcgis store community module would be appreciated by many people I believe.
