Add the repo to your Travis CI account.
Run the script travis_pypi_setup.py to encrypt your PyPI password in Travis config and activate automated deployment on PyPI when you push a new tag to master branch.
Add the repo to your ReadTheDocs account + turn on the ReadTheDocs service hook.
Release your package the standard Python way. Here's a release checklist: https://gist.github.com/audreyr/5990987

It's up to you whether or not to rename your fork/own version. Do whatever you think sounds good.
