Sean's point and Dmitri's are similar.

There are APIs for projects which do not have official team or "program"
names. And some teams may produce more than one forward-facing service.
Naming the API based in the team name doesn't make sense.

My previous point is that restricting the API name to the team/program name
will prevent any competition among projects. It'll be impossibly confusing
to users if more than one "monitoring" project exists, they all have
different API, but each claim to be the one true OpenStack-Monitoring-API
