This article:

http://blog.insoshi.com/2008/10/14/setting-up-your-git-repositories-for-open-source-projects-at-github/

has some good advice for how to set up open source projects so that  
you can maintain a stable branch for your own use, do some hacking and  
contribute those changes back to the project.
