Following up on this and related conversations (e.g. on today's TripleO
meeting), the tripleo-ui team would like to migrate to the main TripleO
tracker as well. It totally makes sense to me, seeing as the UI is just
as dependent on the other TripleO projects. It's a new language but we
already have multiple code bases so what's one more :-) That way the UI
can be more integrated with TripleO during the cycle and related issues
and features will show up during the weekly meeting.

I think there's some Launchpad magic we can use to migrate the bugs,
but I'm not sure if it's possible to move the blueprints themselves. To
avoid distractions when we're so close to Feature Freeze, in my opinion
it might be better to migrate the blueprints after Newton-3 anyway.

If there's no objections, I'll add the 'ui' tag to the bug tagging
policy at [1]. We can start filing new bugs into the TripleO
tracker [2], and blueprint authors can move their outstanding blueprints
when they have a chance.

Thanks,

Julie
