As a TC member, I do not think that any project that is a part of OpenStack
should be hosted outside OpenDev. To be a part of OpenStack, you have to
be hosted in OpenDev. I think that splitting to use Github + OpenDev will
create too much complexity for new contributors in addition to everything
else
already mentioned about CI and release management further up in this
thread.
