Open Stack

Hello ironic!

At today's IRC meeting, the questions "what should and should not be a 
project be under Ironic's governance" and "what does it mean to be under 
Ironic's governance" were raised. Log here:

http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/ironic/2016/ironic.2016-10-17-17.00.log.html#l-176

See http://governance.openstack.org/reference/projects/ironic.html for a 
list of projects currently under Ironic's governance.

Is it as simple as "any project that aides in openstack baremetal 
deployment should be under Ironic's governance"? This is probably too 
general (nova arguably fits here) but it might be a good starting point.

Another angle to look at might be that a project belongs under the 
Ironic governance when both Ironic (the main services) and the candidate 
subproject would benefit from being under the same governance. A 
hypothetical example of this is when Ironic and the candidate project 
need to release together.

Just some initial thoughts to get the ball rolling. What does everyone 
else think?

Thanks,
Mike Turek
