[openstack-dev] [TripleO] milestone-proposed branches

Note that tripleo-incubator is special and should not be released. It
is intentionally kept unfrozen and unreleased to make sure there is no
illusion of stability.

If there are components in it that need releasing, they should be moved
into relevant projects or forked into their own projects.
