Lars, I'm thinking about this with the following priorities in mind..
1. TripleO-Quickstart code needs to be upstream and governed by the TripleO
project
2. TripleO-Quickstart itself is a replacement for instack-virt-setup
3. TripleO-Quickstart's roles need to be composable
4. TripleO-Quickstart needs to be composable for 3rd party git repositories

If we can get one additional git repo under the TripleO umbrella I think
we've accomplished 1-3.  We can prove #4 with yum repos outside of
OpenStack.

Compartmentalizing changes in their own git repositories is nice, but also
has disadvantages.  For instance, there is less governance across the roles
by oooq core members.  If I had to weigh compartmentalizing the roles vs. a
tripleo-quickstart-extras repo in TripleO, my vote would be for the
latter.  This is just my opinion though.

James made it clear that if TripleO-Quickstart is to provide automatically
generated documentation for the TripleO project the src code has to be
under the TripleO project and the execution itself must run in the TripleO
CI environment.

It would be great if TripleO cores could weigh in and assist us in getting
one additional git repo so we can proceed with determining if automatically
generated documentation would be something TripleO would like.

Thanks
