I think we agreed on closing the branch, and Rico was looking into the 
procedure for how to actually do that.

It's a guest agent, so neither :)

Wearing my Red Hat hat, I would be happy to EOL it. But wearing my 
upstream hat, I'm happy to keep maintaining it, and I was not proposing 
that we EOL heat's stable/ocata as well.

I don't think that's a problem. The guest agents rarely change, and I 
don't think there's ever been a patch backported by 4 releases.
