Worth pointing out, those all have "SNAPSHOT" in their filenames
which by Apache Maven convention indicates they're not official
releases. Also they're only being hosted from our
tarballs.openstack.org site, not published to the Maven Central
Repository (the equivalent of DockerHub in this analogy).

The Kolla team _has_ expressed interest in attaining
vulnerability:managed for at least some of their deliverables in the
future, but exactly what that would look like from a coverage
standpoint has yet to be ironed out. I don't expect we would
actually cover general vulnerabilities present in any container
images, and would only focus on direct vulnerabilities in the Kolla
source repositories instead. Rather than extending the VMT to track
vulnerable third-party software present in images, it's more likely
the Kolla team would form their own notifications subgroup to track
and communicate such risks downstream.
