Answers.Text: The Craft 3 beta is expected by the end of the year, with the official release planned for early next year. If it were me, I'd just build it out with 2.6, and use a different assets source.

  If I'm understanding you correctly, it sounds like you're trying to add another [Assets Source Type](https://craftcms.com/classreference/assetsourcetypes/BaseAssetSourceType).
  
  Unfortunately, this isn't possible in Craft 2. This feature is expected to be introduced in [Craft 3](https://craftcms.com/3).
