'OpenStack Programs' are efforts which are essential to the completion
of our mission, but which do not produce deliverables included in the
common release of OpenStack 'integrated' projects every 6 months, like

regardless of size, by being simple to implement and massively scalable."

It seems simple: we cannot be ubiquitous if we're only in English.
