[I am not a lawyer.] We just discussed this in #openstack-infra as
well. Since Kolla is shelling out to an Ansible executable, it's not
likely to count as being a derivative work of Ansible. Consequently,
the Kolla plug-in imported by Ansible being GPLv3 while shipped in
the same repo as Apache License 2.0 Kolla source code would simply
be aggregation of software under distinct licenses.

That said, it can't hurt to ask this again on
legal-discuss at lists.openstack.org where it's much more on-topic.
