The Defcore/Interop Working Group scores capabilities against a set of
criteria, and if the score is high enough the capability is considered
for inclusion into the DefCore/Interop guidelines. [1]

After an advisory period, a capability can become required, at which
point a product that obtains the “OpenStack Powered” trademark
against that guideline is required to provide that capability.

Any project that provides a required DefCore capability could be
considered “core” in that regard, but the coreness of that project
and capability may or may not match up with current opinions on
what a core OpenStack project is.

As far as I know, there is no official TC definition of what a core project is.
