The OFFO project is open to contributions with any Open Source license, the Apache License included. New hyphenation patterns are welcome. It is another matter that I am not volunteering to lead an effort like you propose. If you want to deploy such a project on the OFFO site, I am sure that it can fit in, but you should be the one to get and keep it going.
