[OpenStack-Infra] Migrate Fuel repo to StackForge

Hi Infra team!

We're interested in migrating all of the Fuel project to StackForge
because we really find the gerrit workflow to be beneficial for
development. Earlier there were some reservations about importing the
main Fuel Git repository to Stackforge, and instead submit several
separate puppet modules as independent repos (similar to
PuppetLabs/Puppet Forge) style. We're under heavy development and our
deployment relies on all puppet modules being locked in sync together
in a single repo. One concern is that the majority of our code
consists of forks of other open source Puppet modules. We're slowly
working through and contributing our enhancements upstream and expect
that in a few months we will be 100% in sync with upstream, and
probably using a system like puppet-librarian to compile Fuel. In
speaking with Jeremy Stanley, he seemed to agree that this was a fair
solution.

In addition, we have two more project I would like to put in
StackForge. The first we call "devops"
(https://github.com/Mirantis/devops )which is a simple Django
application that uses python-libvirt and paramiko to create, destroy,
and snapshot groups of virtual machines, networks, and allocate local
storage. It currently has no application outside of Fuel because it is
designed to launch our deployment testing scripts, but it could be
adapted if others are interested.

The second is fuel-docs (https://github.com/Mirantis/fuel-docs ). It
contains our end-user documentation (devel docs are in fuel-web
already in StackForge). While I realize that most projects do
documentation in the same repo as the main project repo, Fuel is
broken up into many parts, and we decided to build docs separately.

In summary, I am requesting these 3 Git repositories to be migrated to
StackForge:
https://github.com/Mirantis/fuel
https://github.com/Mirantis/devops
https://github.com/Mirantis/fuel-docs
These groups should be managed by group fuel-core (already exists).

If there are objections or concerns about the content of these repos,
feel free to raise them and I promise to do my best to address them.
Thank you for your continued help, Infra team.

Best Regards,
Matthew Mosesohn
