My favorite responses gravitated toward (paraphrasing, and apologies for not bothering to dig up citations) "let's shelve this and focus on the TC and OpenStack visions first, then come back to it when we can say which proposed solutions actually further those visions." Monty also indicated he's piecing together a related proposal of some sort, which I'll let him surprise everyone with when he gets it into what he considers a presentable state. Rather than waiting for discussion to conclude, we've already started to do some things everyone agreed were low-cost and at worst harmless: Sean pinned the "popular" (according to the Project Navigator) repos in the main GH org and began manually adding topics to them for some of the more useful governance tags (follows-standard-deprecation and compute-starter-kit so far), while Monty played around a little with some options for standardizing repo descriptions there and I had a go at clarifying the org descriptions. Infra also (I think) has achieved some consensus that we could give up maintaining those GH mirrors in favor of handing them over to someone who wants to handle them more like the social media platform they are, performing selectively curated but still near-real-time replication of repos with standalone automation. Further, we've been actively looking into ways to filter or otherwise reorganize the git.o.o site to make it easier to group repositories by official governance or perhaps sliced across other axes of metadata at our disposal (much simpler to automate than GH since we have complete control over the platform serving that). I believe it's also possible that we could do some symlink and/or redirect tricks to make official clone and browse URLs stop requiring namespaces even before we do something as thorough as https://review.openstack.org/461878 , and intend to further investigate our options there. -- Jeremy Stanley
