 From a governance perspective, the two options are definitely possible.

Kayobe can be seen as one of the Kolla-derived deployment tools, or it 
can be seen as a new deployment tool combining two existing projects 
(Kolla and Bifrost). Project teams are cheap: the best solution is the 
one that best aligns to the social reality.

So I'd say the decision depends on how much independence Kayobe wants to 
have from Kolla. Having a separate project team will for example make it 
easier to have separate meetings, but harder to have common meetings. 
How much of a separate team is Kayobe from Kolla? How much do you want 
it to stay that way?
