I'd also prefer #b. A separate repo emphasizes that it is a separate
project (which can be used without ORM) and it e.g. would allow to set up
separate permissions, so there could be people which can commit to the
registry and not to ORM and the other way around.

We use the registry (as it is, i.e. no modifications or copied stuff) quite
a bit, but I don't think we'd gain much atm. if it was a separate artifact.
We'd have to use the version pulled in by ORM all time anyways.
