No, we don't really need to set the classification in stone in the
bylaws (and we would gain in future flexibility if it wasn't). We just
need to have the OpenStack projects being defined as a superset of the
Core projects. The current bylaws, however, mention the current
classification. So if we don't make that classification evolve, we still
might need to revisit that definition.
