What do you think about creating a new openstack archive organization github.com/openstack-archive/ (or thing like that) and tranfert them to this organization?

Github properly manage redirection and transfert, it could be a proper way to keep projects reachable for searching with the github search engine (for some reasons) and to allow us to clean things on github.com/openstack.

If we do delete these orgs, could we maybe leave the org in place with a
single repo pointing people to opendev / or a table of old repo -> new
repos?

I agree with the clean up, but I don't want to break people and leave
