We do actively collaborate with TaskFlow/StateManagement team who are also the authors of Convection proposal. This is a joint project and we invite you and other developers to join and contribute.
Convection is a Microsoft trademark. That's why Mistral

The project will implement Convection proposal (https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Convection) and provide an API and domain-specific language that enables users to manage tasks and their dependencies, and to define workflows, triggers, and events. The service will provide the ability to schedule tasks, as well as to define and manage external sources of events to act as task execution triggers.

Why exactly aren't you just calling this Convection and/or collaborating
with the developers who came up with it?
