With the "namespace explosion" coming in OpenDev, however, there's another option open to us. We could require that any development which continues after removal from OpenStack be done as a fork of the original. In theory we could have done that even with one common namespace, by requiring projects to either cease using this infrastructure entirely or change their name. Neither of these options is especially desirable. Now, however, we might consider allowing them to continue in the same infrastructure under the same repository name but in a different namespace. We would effectively close down development on the original repository following our normal retirement process, but could optionally also include a note mentioning where continued development is known to be taking place instead.
I believe this is the correct approach. We should be keeping our trademark as far away as possible from projects we have no control over. - ZB
