In the interest of consolidating workload, I'm proposing that we roll the Loci project under the governance of OpenStack Helm. Loci is a fairly low-bandwidth project, with the primary consumer of it being OpenStack Helm. By rolling Loci into OSH, we will be able focus shared efforts and increase review velocity for the Loci project.

The architecture of OpenStack Helm allows it to be container build-system agnostic, and similarly the architecture of Loci allows it to be deployment tooling agnostic. Neither of these goals will change, as there are users of both projects that aren't using the other. However, as they are the largest consumers for each other's work, this is a natural pairing and both project stand to benefit from a tighter governance coupling. We already share a good proportion of the development team and frequently plan PTG sessions to allow for collaboration.

If the community agrees with this approach, we would like to finalize the governance change before the next development cycle to allow for a graceful transition.
