Yeah, if I had realized the Debian packaging repos had changes beyond packaging I wouldn't have supported hosting them at the time. Because the gerrit fork is for the use of this community with our deployment, we do try to upstream fixes, and we don't intend to release it separately under our own distribution, I see that as reasonable. I'm trying to look at this from the perspective of the Golden Rule [1]. We not treat other projects in ways we don't want to be treated ourselves, regardless of whether we're doing it out in the open. I don't want the OpenStack community to have the reputation of forking instead of collaborating.

I want it to be fun, too. One way to ensure that is to try to avoid these situations where one group angers another through some action that the broader community can generally agree is not acceptable to us by writing those policies down. I agree this is ultimately going to be something we rely on the infra team to deal with. I think it's reasonable for the rest of the community to try to help establish the preferences about what policies should be in place. Doug __ OpenSt

This goes back to depending on what you mean by "we" but assuming you mean those of us who were in the community track Forum room at the end of the day on Thursday, a number of us seemed to be in support of that idea including Dean (who was going to do the work to make it happen) and Jonathan (as OSF executive director).

All the Debian packaging, when we were hosting it (before it got retired and moved back to Debian's repository hosting) was implemented as forks of our Git repositories. The Infra team also maintains a fork of Gerrit (for the purposes of backporting bug fixes from later versions until we're ready to upgrade what we're running), and has some forks of other things which are basically dead upstream (lodgeit) or where we're stuck carrying support for very old versions of stuff that upstream has since moved on from (puppet-apache).

Neither of those appears to be documented (specifically, https://governance.openstack.org/tc/reference/licensing.html only specifies licensing requirements for official projects, libraries imported by official projects, and software used by the Infra team). The Infrastructure team has been granted a fair amount of autonomy to determine its operating guidelines, and future plans to separate project hosting further from the OpenStack name (in an attempt to make it more clear that hosting your project in the infrastructure is not an endorsement by OpenStack and doesn't make it "part of OpenStack") make the OpenStack TC governance site a particularly poor choice of venue to document such things. So clearly in the future this will be the responsibility of the Winterscale Infrastructure Council assuming that proposal goes ahead. For now, would it be valuable for the TC to develop some guidelines that will provide the WIC with a solid base it can evolve from once it takes them over, or should we just leave it up to infra's discretion?

Right, that was never a rule (for Stackforge or the current "non-official project hosting" space), and I doubt very much we have enforced it in the past.
