There doesn't seem to be much momentum around that. Here is a bit more 
context to kickstart the discussion:

Here is the part of the "2019 TC vision" that describes constellations:

https://governance.openstack.org/tc/resolutions/20170404-vision-2019.html#navigating-with-constellations

As I see it, there were two key goals in there. First is to get the TC 
(and contributors in general) to wear more of a product manager hat and 
be more involved in defining common groups of OpenStack components 
matching a use case. The other is to expose those constructs more widely 
than just on the marketing website -- make them first-level objects that 
users interact with (in particular in documentation).
