I was under the impression it was already it's own project team based on:
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2016-July/099805.html

It looks like the change was never made in governance however.

The reason I -1'd Paul's TripleO spec and suggested it be proposed to
diskimage-builder was due to:
http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2016-June/098560.html and
https://review.openstack.org/#/c/336109/

I just want to make sure the right set of reviewers who are driving
dib development see the spec proposal.
