I'd generally agree with that. The only issue with devstack is that under the old project-based taxonomy it was classified as a "gating" project and therefore granted ATC status to its contributors. Under the new program-based taxonomy, if it's not adopted by a program then it would fall off the "official" ATC scope. That said, if nobody specific wants to own it it could also be co-adopted by multiple programs (I'd say QA and Infra). That would close that taxonomy change loophole as far as I am concerned... -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) _______________________________________________ OpenStack-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
