I think openstack community provides a flat project market place for infrastructure is good enough:all projects are just some "goods" in the market place, let the cloud operators to select projects from the project market place for his own infrastructure. We don't have to mark a project a core project or not, only need to tag attribute of a project, for example how mature it is, how many "like" they have, what the cloud operator said for the project. etc. All flat, just let people make decision by themselves, they are not idiot, they have wisdom on building infrastructure. Not all people need a package: you bought a package of ice-cream, but not all you will like it, If they want package, distribution provider can help them to define and customize a package, if you want customization, you will decide which ball of cream you want, isn't it?
The flavors you see in a ice-creem shop counter are not there by accident. Those flavors have gone through a creation process, they have been tested and they have also survived over the years. Some flavors are removed with time and some others stay there forever. Unfortunately, tagging those flavors won't cut it, which is why you don't see tags in their labels when you go to an ice-cream shop. Some tags are implied, other tags are inferred and other tags are subjective. Experimenting with new flavors doesn't happen overnight in some person's bedroom. The new flavors are tested using the *same* infrastructure as the other flavors and once they reach a level of maturity, they are exposed in the counter so that customers will able to consume them. Ultimately, experimentation is part of the ice-cream shop's mission and it requires time, effort and resources but not all experiments end well. At the end, though, what really matters is that all these flavors serve the same mission and that's why they are sold at the ice-cream shop, that's why they are exposed in the counter. Customer's of the ice-cream shop know they can trust what's in the counter. They know the exposed flavors serve their needs at a high level and they can now focus on their specific needs. So, do you really think it's just a set of flavors and it doesn't really matter how those flavors got there? Flavio -- @flaper87 Flavio Percoco
