Hmm, this points out a valid issue that we don't have a security group
for tripleo at all. We use the tripleo group to include basically all
tripleo developers so it's definitely not appropriate for this purpose.
Emilien, I think we should create a tripleo-coresec group in launchpad
that can be used for this. We have had tripleo-affecting security bugs
in the past and I imagine we will again. I'm happy to help out with
that, although I will admit my launchpad-fu is kind of weak so I don't
know off the top of my head how to do it.
